Lost everything
Good you noticed that--two weeks is a great start
Recovery is different than just quitting Volshen--
what kinds of things are you doing to change your mind pattern
about drinking, amusement, dealing with stress, etc.?
Those things will come up soon, and that's where a plan can
really help you accumulate solid sober time
Wishing you the best

Day 16.
Girlfriend's grandfather died last night. I'm glad I'm able to be supportive and not be on Day 1 or 2 and have her worry about me drinking as well as grieve. People are starting to believe I'm serious but are still very cautious. I don't blame them. She isn't ready to move back in with me but on a day to day basis she's not assuming that I'm off drinking someplace.

Thank you Dee, you have a good weekend as well.
I'm going out to see a movie tonight. Working for a few hours this morning. I'm not sure what I'm doing tomorrow but it's not going to include drinking.
Yesterday at work I was sent to work in the alcohol aisle again (temporarily working in a grocery store) and all the beer was right in front of me. I started having positive thoughts about drinking briefly.. but then I started feeling upset ... alcohol was a very negative thing in my life ... I felt like LEAVE ME ALONE. But I know it's not the beer making me think about it ... it's me.
Today is day 20.
