Good night all, sounds like everyone is tucked in safe and sound.

Good morning y'all. Love the pic of you watching the world cup CK.
I forgot, today I have a birthday party to attend for my neices 4 year old daughter. It's just another drinking to excess excuse for the in-laws. Mind you in a past life, I would have been looking forward to this day. But now that I live in real life, I can't help but worry about how much some of them drink. Especially my nefew..... The good side is, I suppose, its not reminder of what I'm missing, it's a reminder of how disgusted I feel about how much I drank and wasted.

Hi, weekenders.
Back from boxing.
Still feel "blah" it's more of a "warrior blah" than "i am worthless and no good blah".
The brain fog from yesterday's overeating is gradually clearing and some plan of putting reloading in motion is taking place.
I had a chat with one of my boxing buddies I haven't seen for a long time and he told that while I was away on my business trip some other guy complained to him "I don't like to do sparring with her. She hits too hard".
I would watch some soccer game, but I got rid of TV about two years ago. Maybe there are some online options.
Now I think I deserve another cup of coffee and cherries. And then a healthy lunch later.
The food makes a HUGE impact on overall well-being and mood. Such a simple and underrrated aspect of making a life better, IMO.

You don't need to be sorry love....and hey, you're here with us and we can still all have a sober weekend....we learn love....no way I went near a pub for a long time...I could not cope with that....this is one day at a time....
So onwards....with many hugs. ♥
PS I always think that people who come right back and turn themselves in have just SO much courage...if you can do that, you can do anything.

No need to be sorry, Calmself.
Good for you to be back here right away.
"Just one drink" is a dangerous trap.
Analyze your mistake, make adjustments, move forward. No self-beating allowed.

calmself...you've stated before that Friday and Tuesday are your drinking days.
I think if you are going to quit drinking, Friday and Tuesday need to have locked-down solid plans that keep you busy doing something other than the old routines.
I changed everything. New people, new activities, maybe try some of those great local AA meetings on Fri and Tues afternoon/evening. There has to be some plan. A cooking class, a guitar class, a softball league or bowling team, volunteering on those nights. Change the view.
