Signed in for another sober weekend.
"The length of a film should be directly related to the endurance of the human bladder." - Alfred Hitchcock. At Universal Studios in Orlando we once sat in the Hitchcock Attraction to cool off and relax our young kids. It turned out to be my favorite exhibit in the park. Alfred Hitchcock = brilliant man

I'm in for another sober weekend. Kids are in bed. House is quiet. Warming up some tea. Gonna check the tv in a few and call it an early night. My body wants to rest--pushed it at the gym a bit this morning.
Stay focused, everyone. We got this.

Trying to get the kids to bed and keep one determined cat off the iPad. For such a small cat she is remarkably like a bulldozer. I have never had such a pushy cat.
No cravings here except for some peace and quiet. Soon the children will be sleeping and I will be too.

Olive1-it's an AMAZING show. You'll love it! And there's two seasons so it'll definitely keep you busy 
Newhope01-have a plan before you get home so you won't be tempted to drink. You'll be so happy when you wake up tomorrow feeling awesome!
ZeldaFan-good for you! You give me hope. This is my first weekend sober in a long time. It feels good.

Hi all I join this thread every weekend and then forget to post in it. Everything is fine - no cravings etc but then I have been stopping and starting since August (usually make it a month) so I'm pretty much used to it by now. This year though, I'm planning to smash through that elusive month barrier and make it to 2015 booze-free.
Hope you're all well Xx

But it looks like there is a marathon of it all day tomorrow, don't know if it starts from the beginning, but I will watch anyway and fill in the blanks later.

And I don't have an umbrella. I will be soaked and frozen by the time I get to my train. But it is Friday and I can change into my pajamas and make some coffee after picking up the kids from my parents' house. Maybe my mom will feed us.
Marius - no one can make you drink. You can't control the people at work but they can't control you either. Hang tough, you're doing great!
Renarde - I still cringe when I remember the stuff I used to drunk-post on Twitter and Facebook. Thank God I'm now free from all that. What a relief that I'm not "that girl" anymore!
mecanix and weasel - it's great that the weekend thread is one year old! Thanks for all the work you've done on it over the past year.

Hey y'all ,
glad to see everyone sticking together , having a chat , dealing with the stuff life throws at us in healthy ways (even if it requires some patience)
Hey ForMe423 hows things over there in NY ? how cold is it ? is there snow ?
Just pottering around here in the UK after waking up about 15mins ago, it's about 7:45 so i'm just going to shuffle down stairs and make some coffee .
It's still nice to wake up in the morning without a hangover and not have to wonder what you did the night before , it's also nice to not find any wreckage from drunken stumbles/ falls , furniture knocked over , computers trod on , drink spilt , things cremated in the oven
So i'm happy and grateful for this sober saturday morning , a chance to try again , a chance to make the next decision the right one .
Good morning to you (good evening easty friends) , m

Hey Mecanix same here, I woke up 7:45, after some pretty messed up dreams (I did watch 'the shining' last night though!!). But it is still so much better not to have a hangover, I'm gonna do something nice today, and so should all of you!
Thanks for all of you being here, I wasn't feeling good yesterday after a bad day, but today is a new Saturday and I feel so much more like my old (good) self again.
Good Saturday y'all
