Day 12!! :)

Well its day 12 for me, I have been doing pretty good. There has been a few times that I would think about drinking only for a quick second. Then I tell my alcoholic mind to SHUT UP!!!!..lol Hope everyone has a great sober day! It is snowing here today its our first snow fall this winter, its very pretty out. I'm sure I will have thoughts of sitting by my fire place tonight and drink and keep warm...but this girl is gonna hang tough again

Hey congrats! Day 12 for me too!

Ups and downs but hanging in there.

We had quite a bit of snow yesterday, good excuse for a fire, blanket and book!

Yeah Nel, I grew up in SE Iowa and was stationed in Michigan for 3 years. Those fire places are such a tempting setting. Good luck. Maybe watch tv or read and try saying to your self: I don't need a drink for the next hour and then repeating that at the end of the hour. Maybe take short walks in the snow to stop urges and I mean short walks so you don't return home with the urge to drink because of the cold.
