Start over again
Argh! I messed up a couple of days ago and got some wine.. I am sitting down now and creating a plan for this week. I can do this, I can do this! New goal 7 days, once I have that I will reach for 14. I can do this, I can do this! Planned to go to a meditation event tonight with my husband, so we will go get tea and tonight is covered for substance free mind expanding fun. This weekend is tough, I work in retail and have inventory this weekend. So, instead of a 9a-5p on saturday and a 6a-2pm on sunday, I will be working 8p-2a both days. I feel like it is so easy to want to drink after that. If I can keep myself from picking up a bottle on the way to work I will be safe. I can do this! I can do this!

If you have a smartphone, maybe you should check in here at 7:58 pm right before you walk into work. Let us know you didn't buy that wine. Build those accountability muscles to yourself and to others. This thread is a good start, now use it!
You can do this! You don't have to take that first drink no matter what.

I understand all too well that old desire (and habit) to stop and get wine after work. It was my routine for many years. Now, I couldn't imagine doing that again, going back to that place in my life.
Quiting is hard, everybody knows that. But you can do it. Formulate a plan and make tomorrow the beginning of a new, better, healthier, happier life!
