A triumph today
A Long story short,I had a quite important today which didn't turn out to be the best.Up at 5 in the morning and got a lift to the train station.3 hours each way and I can't stand public transport!
Anyways it it didn't turn out great,3 hours each way,not driving and it finished early.I had a thought about going to the pub as I had time but erased that thought in my mind which has never happened before and I'm so proud of myself.Its only been a week so I know its a long road ahead,but I'm always hard on myself that I've got to give myself a pat on the back.Its only a short while but it does feel good when you win a battle with alcohol and hopefully there are many more victories to come!
Strength to you all and have a good day,it's bed time for me as I'm up for work with a clear head and a pint of optimism for the first time in a long time!

Actually, it sounds like today turned out pretty well for you! Good on you for resisting the call of the alcohol. That was a test and you passed it with flying colours 
And talking of flying, I hope our 'storm' tomorrow isn't as bad as predicted! In the storm of 87, our greenhouse went flying, never to be seen again!

It feels so good when we get over those hurdles, Django! Congratulations on making it through the temptation.
It does get easier as we go along - one day it will barely cross your mind. I never thought I'd get to that point, but it happened.
