I made it through another weekend. More importantly, I made it through another week. I was a day drinker, while my husband was at work. I'd drink and sober up before he came home.

It's Monday again. There was a time he would leave for work and as soon as he was gone, I was down at the store buying alcohol.

I'm doing fine. Last night there was a trigger... a memory... an impulse. I thought he would be called away for several hours. The last time that happened, I took it as an opportunity to drink. He wasn't here, so I took advantage of it.

Just for a second, I remembered that and my addictive voice started prodding me to remember how exciting it was to drink while he was gone that last time and it would be fun to do it again this time.

I recognized what was happening and just ignored it. I'm never doing that again. I'm never changing my mind.

Have a great day everyone!
