I was wondering about this, in one of my more cynical moments...

I gotta sober up before I can join anything, but I'm aiming for tonight. I guess I'll let y'all know...

Take care,
TB

Oct 4th was my LAST drink, (Day before my B-Day) and the puzzle is starting to fall back into place,slowly but surely. I gave up alot to quit, but at the same time I have gained more than I can imagine.

Thanks for all the support! SR Friends

Happy October

Hi Laura! Welcome to the October group! Also, congrats on day 2.

TB--you can do it! Tonight sounds like a great place to start. Just keep moving forward.

D---thanks for your kind words. You have been a great source of support for me. I sometimes need to be told things in a matter-of-fact yet caring way--I appreciate all your help through my ups/downs.

My date is October 3rd a Saturday no less. I am worried about a hayride I am going on this weekend with free beer and wine and wine coolers. I prefer vodka shots so I might be ok. Hopefully....:praying

Open bars and I never mixed well

Welcome LovesToTravel! Glad you joined us. If I may ask--do you have to go on this hayride this weekend? Free alcohol would make the situation quite uncomfortable for me. My last drink--which was October 3rd--was not my drink of choice....which is why I ask the question.

It is sorta a family thing. My 82 year old father is going and he knows that I am not drinking (he never drinks) so I thought it would be ok. We go every year and I never drink much at the party (more of a closet drinker). I guess I hate to miss the little bit of fun that I may have. I was rather looking forward to not drinking at the party.
