the missus wants to go see Silver Linings Playbook. About 6 weeks ago I discovered this movie theater near our house has a full bar. Then 4 weeks ago I quit drinking! D'Oh!
My mum who i look after used to drink whiskey , My favorite was a big soft melot red wine . A few months after i gave up my mum switched to merlot red wine, quite often she buys two bottles and leaves them around the place , maybe one open and part drunk .

Sometimes i think my sobriety is being subconciously tested by my nearest and dearest Non ... just sayin '

Everyone sounds so productive this weekend. I am scrubbing my bathroom tile. My weekend has been tense. I am not playing well with others. I am sober but feeling kind of trapped in an angry situation.

Escapist.... I had a lazy weekend. All I did was cook and eat. I have to go on a diet.

Good to see you here tonight!

I am heading to lay in bed and watch the oscars with a fizzy water and a cat.

Have a good night all.

Thank you for the support this weekend. I needed SR and each of you. Thanks.

I struggled more then usual this weekend with wanting to drink but a lot was going on. Happy to report didn't give in! My son did well in his robotics competition and I was happy to be there. I am beginning my school vacation break tomorrow and a little nervous about how to spend my time but kicking it off with a massage. I don't attend AA but may even hit a few local noon meetings to keep me in balance and keep me from locking myself in the house. Congratulations to all sober weekend warriors and thank you for all of the support!

Ok Weekenders!! Looks like we made it! (Cue Barry Manilow)

Happy to see we all have made it through another weekend Sober.

Nonsensical I haven't caught up the thread through today, but your floor looked good as of yesterday. Hopefully that faulty wet saw didn't put you too far behind!

Today is day 22 for me. I can actually smell day 30 this coming weekend!

Monday afternoon so I think it's safe to say I made it through that weekend. Day 17. Thanks for making this thread.
