Day 5 :)
 
Day 5 and doing ok!

Had friend round on evening of day 3 for dvd night, she didn't drink but my hubby and daughter did...... and it didn't bother me in the slightest.

Couldn't do this without your support guys.

Think I finally believe that I don't need alcohol in my life. Not sure I did believe it completely before.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend :)

Oh btw new avatar is the boy kitten - names now picked.......

Chester for the boy and Buffy for the girl :)

Great names ! Mavis, great you're on day 5 :You_Rock_

We started pretty much together, you and me, so come on let's do this this time.

Do you have a plan of action for when you reach that danger point like you did before, was it on day 7?

Kittens are so cute ! Can we have some more photos ? x

Day 5 well done you

Chester & Buffy are really nice names

Good work Mavis

Hi Janie :c015:

I really think we can do it!!!

My plan is.....not to drink! And to post here for support if I get the urge to. Definitely. I only drink when I don't post. What's yours?

Haven't got the kittens yet these are photos we took when we visited them but will post more, not sure how to put a photo onto a post though or a signature so might have to just keep changing my avatars :)

I'm too old for all this technical stuff ha ha x

MavisTheFairy13 10-26-2014 02:25 AM

Thank you Soberwolf!!! :)

I was leaning towards Maisie for the girl but hubby and daughter weren't keen. Plus I'm a huge Buffy fan.

Thanks for your support you've helped me so much :tyou

Hiya Mavis, I love cats and your kittens are adorable. Brilliant news on day 5. I did it with the help of this forum so I'm positive you can, too. :You_Rock_

OMG, Mavis!!! I'm not even a "cat person," but I LOVE their sweet little kitten faces!

And also, very well done on Day 5! Way to hang in there, girl!

Mikie9 10-26-2014 07:32 AM

OMG those kittens are so cute it hurts!

Congrats on day 5! Keep being strong!

tommyinphilly 10-26-2014 07:33 AM

Great news. You sound really positive and happy. Your kittens are adorable

JanieJ 10-26-2014 07:54 AM

Thank you so much for the extra photos, Mavis. :tyou They are both very adorable !!

My plan, when I get the AV, is to post on here and if I am out somewhere, to leave the area, walk off, drive away, or if I can't do that, to keep saying "NO, I WILL NOT DRINK " in my mind. that's worked so far. Plus a cup of tea and a few biscuits always helps :-)
