Was offered drinks many times last night My wife and I were invited to go to one of the hot spots in town last night with some of my co-workers. We haven't been out in a long while so figured why not since I usually turn them down. I felt great as I received my 90 day chip over the weekend. My wife asked me if I was going to be ok being around basically everyone drinking. I told her I feel great and lets go have a good time. Once we arrived the party started quickly. The bottles arrived and out come the cocktails. I told my co-workers I'm driving so I'm not drinking. One of them kept trying to get me to drink at least 10 different times probably. I just laughed it off and changed the topic. I had no problem making drinks for my wife or anyone else. She was worried about me for a while, but she told me today that she realizes she can't control me and if I was going to do it I would do it. I told her she was absolutely right. Well I'm glad I still had a great time drinking a lot of juice and listening to some good music. |
Good job GetRight |
Well done for getting your 90day chip and good to see you handled your night out so well. There will come a time when being around people drinking won't phase you at all but right now staying centred and focused is paramount. Well done. Elle |
Great job on making it through GetRight!! :You_Rock_ |
A cyber pat on your back from me. |
Hi Get! I'm very glad that you have flexed those sober muscles and had a successful night. I hate those people who just keep offering us drinks. What's their deal!?!? Keep being vigilant and working your plan. Remember it's not easy, but it's totally worth it. |
:celebrate |
It felt good to say no thank you. I would usually be the guy that would be regretting what I possibly did that night. I woke up with no worries.
