Good stuff Al
I did all our shopping on amazon, everyones having a book this year, like it or lump it
Noticed they put their prices up at the begining of December, (we'd ordered just before) coincidence?“Pleasure of love lasts but a moment, pain of love lasts a lifetime.”0 -

Hiya Jayne, you are doing well;)
This is definately one day at a time isn't it!......I've decided it must be work.....it's when I'm there that I think...that's it I want a drink!:o
I think I wanted a drink yesterday, but that was very fleeting as I walked straight home without a thought of actually getting any:D
With some family stuff going on yesterday and today, I got pretty wound up...and decided that I would have a drink today....I figured it's the weekend....I've not drank all week...so I went and bought some...
Only, I can't quite work out whether I bought it because I was stressed or more out of habit?:rolleyes:
Normally, if I buy drink when I am stressed, it gets opened the minute or so I get in....and I carry on...
Well, tonight I just put it in the cupboard...with the thought I'll have one or two later. Well, it's nearly 10 now....and I really don't want one...don't know why on earth I bought it:o
Suppose I can take it to friends when we have a get together before or after Christmas...at least there will be more people there to drink it....:rolleyes:0 -
well done chris you have so much stress and hassle and you are doing just brilliantly. I relate to everything you say and i know how hard it is. Tonight you should be so proud of yourself you have done so well.:A :j0

Thankyou:D
And to top it all...my body has now decided to make sure I stay drink free....my gut is playing up....IBS seems to have kicked off again..no doubt with all the crap (lol! pardon the freudian slip there:p ) going on lately...
Anyway, that's 8 days so far:D must keep going....
Best of luck everyone...I'm off for the evening now...take care and have a good weekend XX0 -
Top tale Chris:T Habit is a big possibility;) Do your family make you stressed, mine do:o Not Mrs Mac and the kids, but parents do:o
