Honey Bear, read the article with great interest, thanks - I'm afraid I laughed when he said a "non-alcoholic" night involved two beers and a bottle of wine!

That comment's such a joy isn't it, Cathybird?!

Well if I thought that after a dry January it would be easy to resist drinking a glass (or 2 or 3) of wine with my Sunday dinner, I was wrong. I didn't have any but I did have to grit my teeth somewhat. I was actually having an internal conversation along the lines of 'Go on, have a glass of wine, you done so well'. I'm going to stick to my no wine at home for now because I think if I started up again I would slide quickly back into my old habits.

So positive thoughts - I didn't have a drink even though I wanted one.

It's really unfair about booze. If the option's there, the temptation will always be there. The habit of having one isn't broken in a month, either, sadly as everyone who's done Dry January can attest. Well done to both you and Love a Sale for sticking to your guns. You've got a lot more willpower than I ever managed to muster in my drinking days.

I hope the floor leveling went smoothly, Green Karen. (Pun sort of intended.)

4/28 please, Shaggy.

I didn't manage to do all last week SNC, so it was 4/5. Ho hum.

I managed 28/16 for January. Happy with it in general, although I suppose I will always be annoyed at myself for breaking Dry January.

I drank Fri and Sat (more than what is recommended, but less than what I have drank in the past) and I found myself wanting to drink last night. Kinda of like, oh well, you can always start again tomorrow type of thing.

But I didn't. And I am rather pleased with myself. I left the bottle in the fridge. But it did make me think about my mindset. Why did I want to drink last night? No reason, just because. But when I was in the zone for "Dry Jan," Sundays were a breeze.

So I am up to 1/14 for this month and 1/5 for the SNC for this week.
