Hello all ODATer's --- late posting today, as I wasn't going to at all because I'm so disappointed in myself. Was doing just fine on day 4 last night right up until 9:00 pm. Started to panick, knowing I couldn't drink for the next 2 days at least and that would have made it 7 days without AL. So in my stupidity, I rationalized that I'd better have a couple of drinks quickly before i went to bed, so that the next 2 nights at least would be easy to get through. Where did that come from?! Must have been that beast AL taking over! So, here I am again on Day 1.
I too, am going to give it my best come Sept. 1. We have a big wedding to attend on Aug. 30 (but I'm going to do my best to mod at that .... I certainly don't want to disgrace myself .... meeting for the first time what could possibly be my daughter's future in-laws. So, lots of tonic and lime for me that day.
So, I've fessed up and hopefully learned from that experience .... next time, just go to bed early. What an idiot I was!
