I need to focus on my list

I am feeling rather cabin feverish this evening which kind of hit me out of no where and I知 finding it so hard to outweigh the negatives to drinking this evening. This is day 20 and Ive gotten some craving here and there but tonight is particularly giving me a headache. I知 not going to drink. tonight happens to be hard with the tension around our house with Fussy youngsters, competing siblings, whining and constantly getting into what they shouldn稚. Normally a glass of wine or two before they their bedtime would put me at ease and not let me get so annoyed. I知 just waiting for bed time, a bedtime that will come early this evening.

I decided to make a list of the good things about not drinking that I can enjoy this evening and tomorrow morning
-I can stay focused and read
-my licorice tea I致e become obsessed with
-tasting dinner
-not obsessing if there is enough wine
-not worrying what I知 doing to my body
-knowing I値l get more restful sleep that I would with alcohol in my system
-waking up tomorrow with no shakes
-waking up tomorrow with no hangover
-being able to drink coffee tomorrow withou feeling nauseous
-focusing on my children
-making it to church

Feel free to add your own. I壇 love to hear more positive thinking!

Yep. Never said to myself, "you know, last night would've been so much better had I had a few". Which then had always turned into way much more than just a few.

Plenty of mornings waking up wishing I had not drank the night before.
