How's your day going Endoftheday? I'm good. Sister visiting and had a hefty craving for some red wine but had some ice cream instead. Dont feel like I'm missing out on much, especially when I saw the hangovers this morning!! It really is a false promise.

Good for you Endoftheday! I'm good. Moving house and tired but have a few days off after today. Fell asleep really early and bizarre drinking dreams where you start drinking but dont realise you are until later. Scary!

Today's been good. I was working with a little girl, she mentioned red wine and said 'yuck, how can anyone want to drink it?' I thought EXACTLY! It's what we all started off thinking before we decided it was a good idea. How's your day been Endoftheday? Work still stressful?

Sounds like a good day! It's been a mixed bag for me. Work hideously stressful and first big cravings for a while but had some chocolate, fell asleep then walked for a few miles. Off for a few days so a bit of self care needed just now. Feeling really good about managing it well 😄 hope you enjoyed the walk!

Hey Endoftheday. Sorry for delay in posting. No internet yet at new house. 6 weeks! Delighted. Been challenging the last few days. Incredible how so many things about moving house are associated with drinking. Really happy to be sober. Well done to you.

Hey Endoftheday. How are you doing? Found a wee spot at the top of our road that gets 3G. Thank god! Feeling pretty good today. Things have been hard going the last few weeks but realising how much harder it would have been if I'd been drinking too. Hope life is treating you well!

Well....thats me back at day 1. I drank a bottle of wine and 2 beers last night. I feel absolutely gutted. Was prescribed some diazepam yesterday for some side effects of hormone treatment Im having. Never had it before and the minute it kicked in I had the most massive craving I can remember having. It was like the part of my brain which copes with craving wasnt there and I had none of the tools I use day to day. Its evil stuff and in the bin now. Its also dangerous to drink on them so I am lucky Im ok today. Sorry, I feel like Ive let us both down. Almost 7 weeks was huge achievement for me. Just got to start over with a good attitude. At least I know I would never have drank if I hadnt taken those pills. They opened the door and my AV walked right in. It also been tough with no internet so Ive not been on here as much as before.You are doing an awesome job Endoftheday. Stick with it!
