Need a "sobriety buddy" for the weekend?

I do! Anyone want to share support for a sober weekend and check back into this thread Sunday or Monday? It's my first sober weekend and I'd feel happier and safer knowing there's some friends out there!

I will keep you company Cray, I expect to be sober this weekend but I do it one day at a time as it is the only way I can deal with it.
Good luck!

I think this is a great idea. Mine should be pretty easy this week. I'm going in for foot surgery tomorrow so it should be pretty easy to keep sober this weekend. But I am up for this for all of our coming sober weekends.

I'd like this too. I always start out so determined and by day 2, I spend all afternoon fighting the urge and just cave in. I want to stop so bad. I can tell I'm not really healthy anymore and I want to be here for my kids. A weekend buddy might help me get thru.

Welcome to our new member Lauren!!

Cray....Thanks! Neat idea!

I will be sure to check this thread often.

Friday...I will be joining friends at the pool
in the morning.
Noon...An AA meeting then lunch

Anyone else care to share on their plan
