Day 2
 
I am going to an AA meeting at 1230. Don't really enjoy them but want to attend a few to keep my memory green. Going out tonight after golf game with friends who drink.....just thought I'd put that out there. :lmao

Dear winkster26,
Regarding tonight... just stay strong and say No. Just think back on all the misery drinking has caused you thus far. Al, as in alcohol, is not a friend. Just keep an eye on Day 3.

Also, my new favorite drink is club soda and grapefruit. Try it!!

Best to you, 4S

I just think back to nights and mornings kneeling by with my head in the same place I put my axx. Gross. The severe headache and acid reflux and the $350 I have to shell out because I fell flat on my face and busted my glasses. Good Times!! I think not. Maybe there are people who can have 1 or 2 and quit but that's not me. Just get through the night. You'll be so glad.

Thanks much. Words of wisdom. I like the Al part. Def not a friend but is quite sneaky and manipulative. Instead of thinking of the good times I need to think of the awful times and there are plenty! I'll try that drink. I also like cranberry and club! :tyou
