    I have taken a look at my calendar and chosen 9 more drink-free days. I am hoping for one today and tomorrow. If not next weekend will be instead, but I’d prefer this weekend. For added accountability here are the days I’ve chosen 17, 18, 19, 20, 23, 26, 27, 28, 29.

    Have a good saturday,
    WBF.


    Good for you wbf.:)


    I do something similar every month in that I know which days I plan to have a drink. Some are social occasions which have been pre-arranged others are at weekends when I choose to drink at home. All this doesn't allow for is impromptu occasions. I'm working on 'paying back' any of those from my 'home' days but it's not easy.


    Compromise last night. I had a drink but only finished off the bottle in the fridge. Was tempted to open another but I didn't.
  • 2/2 for me, and not sure for November for tonight. Maybe 16!!

    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.
