I am in!
My nephew plays High School football and the home games are a nice brisk Fall walk away and their hot dogs are actually pretty good!

They are saying rain for Sunday so I look forward to a full day of working on my artful projects.

Happy Sober Weekend!

Hi everyone,

I am ready for another sober weekend! I missed this thread last weekend - had BIL in town and staying with us. Day 43 today and don't want to blow it this weekend so I will be here. We can all do this!

Actually the weekend will be day 5, 6 & 7 but I'm ready for it. I consider it a major mountain I'm ready to cast into the sea!

Yes, I'm in!

Day 11 here.

I'm grateful for all of you and I'm very grateful to not have picked up a drink in almost 2 weeks.

xoxo, buddies!

Stay strong and don't give in to the poison! Weekends are tough but like Nietzsche said, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." Or was it Conan?

I'm jumping in with both feet too! Really happy it is Friday but not in the way I used to be as it was a good excuse to get loaded. I'm looking forward to dinner at home with my son and some serious tv channel flipping!

I'm in too. Tough weekend ahead. Card game tonight with a bunch of guys, and NY Giants football game Sunday. Always have been big drinking events. I have a plan though, and think I am up for the challenge. I feel so good today. I need to remember that.

I've slipped 6 days since I started this about a month ago.
They have been on each weekend. I'm working on a strong mental defence, for my first complete alcohol free weekend!!

Hi Everyone,
Friday is a day I'm working at home. Husband and kids gone to school all day and I'm alone in the house with husband's beer and wine. It's in the garage though, so I can't hear it calling to me. <<thumbing nose at garage right now>>

I will check in here today to keep myself accountable.

I'm not worried. 11th day today ~ I'm good!

Hope everyone else is resolved too. Weekends really are hard!

I'm in too! This thread made me smile, Fandy, love the "Leave the Gun...Take the Cannoli" best gangster quote ever, yet so poignant in oh so many ways...

Just to be on the safe side, I'm in for sure for a second sober weekend! Strength in numbers.
