Day 6
I'm so glad to have made it this far. This is the only support I have around me it seems. My husband called to tell of his perfect night out with friends back in Montana. Of course this involved drinking. I think for a moment I was tempted.
I woke up this morning it felt like I had a hang over coming on...strange. I definitely needed to snap back to reality otherwise this would have put me back into a depression.
We are big Steelers fans and there is only one sports bar in town. I remember most of the games last year started at 11am and the bar maid always brought us the first pitcher out of the entire crowd when noon came around. In Wyoming you can't legally start drinking until noon. By the we would leave the bar we would be completely toasted. By 3pm my husband would be sleeping in his chair and dinner would be a farce. When I think about this...it makes me sick to my stomach. This is not normal behavior.
So today I am happy to be have 6 days sober under my belt. My real test will be Sunday but I will be logging onto here for support.

Sometimes it comes on regular tv but sometimes it doesn't It depends on your satellite provider and where you are in the United States. Being out in the last frontier has its drawbacks when it comes to television.
It is a late game so I am planning on staying in my home safe and sound. My husband might want to as well. He is a functional alcoholic and it is hard to be around him at times. He can drink liquor and still get up at 5:30 am to start his work day. I on the other hand can't function this way. He doesn't understand this and he probably never will. We are all different.
Believe me I am determined not to drink. It feels great being sober!
