Default Are you my twin sister??

Chelle, your 'shopping' story is so like mine its unreal - I shop at the local just around the corner - i daren't drive to the 'annonymous' supermarket if I m desperate - for fear of drinking and driving - although I have ashamedly done this in the past as my previous threads admit.

I hope and prayer for a different cashier - as my local is like a mini 'tesco's' and I go in at all times for the same 2 bottles of wine (never one!) and any of the 'offers' that they may have just to 'hide' the fact I came in just for the booze - catfood (I don't have one!) dogfood ( I do, but would not normally pay their prices - if I was sober!!) and anything else that grabs my fancy!!

What a crazy crazy place we are in.

I am also in UK and gearing up to go 30 days AF in september - I have been, I think remarkably better since finding this site, I am however, more aware of the damage I have done - since finding this site (ironically!!) so am taking one day at a time and convincing myself that I will get to where I want to be - I have stopped daytime drinking - whether that is lunch with the girls, or an excuse for a summer holiday drink, and wait for 7pm before I will allow myself to even think about starting!

here's hoping, fingers crossed and all that. xx
