GOOD DAY BOOZE BUSTERS!!! It's a fresh month and a great time to be Hangover Free!!
Hannah, I was actually thinking about AF beer and wishing I had brought some during the "celebration moment" at the trial. Funny - I used to drink lots of beer back in college but really lost my taste for it. So I have no idea if it would taste good to me or not. Might have to try it sometime though! The small and less formal wedding sounds really nice!! Mr. Doggy and I are both on #2 and talk about small - we got married in the court house with just my folks and Gary's best friend in attendance, then the 5 of us went out to lunch at a casual pub type place.
Let us know how you fared in golf yesterday! Have a fun week with Mr. Hannah home.
Sheepish and sothankful....glad you are both out of the Fugly Green Suits and on to Day 2!! Never stop trying, and never stay away for a long time like I did. NOT WORTH IT. sothankful, I know what you mean about changing the pattern. I think the hypno CD's are worth a try - why not?? The biggest complaint I've seen about the MWO CD's is the voice is sort of....I dunno. Mechanical? Monotone? LOL - I got past that when I realized that to me, the voice sounds like some of the characters Will Forte plays on Saturday Night Live where he uses that monotone voice. So I named the hypno voice on the CD "Will" and developed a very nice relationship with him. Especially the part where I'm laying in the Hum-ock looking up at the clouds. And imagining myself in a bikini looking great after dumping all these booze calories and exercising and stuff.......well, now I'm way off track!! Bottom line - look at how much $$$ we wasted on booze. So I'm not afraid to spend a little $$$ of what I'm saving getting myself out of the mess.
Marshy welcome back!!! Glad the wineglass trick seemed to do the job in terms of minimizing the "nags" to drink. Hope the visit was a great one! I really don't care who knows I've been a problem drinker - LOL most of the people close to me in any way know it anyway and are just too polite..... But I DO understand the desire to not drink on your OWN terms and not having other people tip toeing around.
Gegit - I just can't even imagine living with all that smoke and the difficulty breathing and no breeze to blow it away and nobody there to help. (((((((gelgit hugs))))))) Not to mention estranges hubby under foot....... My heart is out to your chickens too. Are the fires done near you and it's just the smoke problem now? Or do you still have burning fires nearby? Or do you even know - maybe not which would be scary... We are thinking of you.
Mame - lol on your cat during your attempted CD hypno listen. What is it about cats - they are so smart!! They always know when you DON'T want them bothering you (and they bother you). And back when I had cats, they always seemed to know who was either allergic to cats or didn't like cats...and that's who they wanted to pet them, sit in laps, jump on, etc.
Your insights about your attitude towards the hypno are interesting. I posted awhile back from the quit smoking board - that theory that we don't just "fall off the wagon" at the spur of the moment...our subconscious minds have been planning it. Sounds like you just busted your inner Booze Beast in a plot!!! Good for you!!
Amelia, that is wonderful that you aren't thinkin of drinkin very much!! OH I know we all want to get to that place!!
mickeyshell!!!!! I hope you will check in often and tell us more about yourself and go Booze Bustin' with us for July!! We CAN do this - ESPECIALLY on the weekends. They are just days.
Today is Day 41 Absolutely Fabulous Hangover Free!! Yesterday afternoon for some reason I just felt exhausted and took a nap. Then napped in the evening, and then slept pretty decent through the night. I guess I needed some sleep!!
Our friend who took lots of picture of Fergie and Mr. Doggy on Sunday sent me a few this morning - she has TONS of pics to go through from the trial. They brought a tear to my eye!! Later today I'll size a couple of them down a tad and post a couple. Other the the continued "cloud nine" feeling over the trial results, it's pretty much another week otherwise. We finished off a decent June in our business, although our expenses have been so high lately we've got to get that under control. We're setting goals for July and doing the regular stuff. I'm off soon to Curves, and then to my Tuesday AM business referral group.
Catch you Booze Busters later!!
