Sorry about your dad 
I’m doing well. Just hit my 90 days milestone. Wish I could have been doing this good when he was still here.

Day 10 and 10 hours. I’m at a 50th birthday party for my husband’s work friend. Heavy drink scene. I knew not to come, but I felt guilty and came anyway. I know it won’t end well if I do end up partaking. I feel good about my 10 days. Despite that, I’m feeling that itch. I want to sneak a few out of the refrigerator and slam them in the bathroom where no one can see me… that thought alone should be a major red flag to me that I should not be drinking. Ugh why am I like this?

Have you eaten? Get a soft drink or what you like.
I hope you stay strong.

Yes! I’m eating all of the food. the urge has passed for now, I think. Hopefully we don’t have to stay here much longer. Thanks for your response.

For future situations like these, it’s smart to have an exit strategy. Take your own car so that you can leave. Very good of you to use us for support while you were at the party. Great sober muscle flex.

Yes! 12 days.
My main job gives me a considerable amount of free time so I have second to keep me out of trouble. Idle hands, so to speak.
Im off at the second job this week. (Spring break)
There is danger of slipping because weekday drinking alone is (was) my thing.
But, today I’ve made it and I will tomorrow too. I feel good and don’t want it to stop.

Yes this was my mistake. I threatened to leave the party and come back for my husband at one point, but he promised we’d leave soon. That turned into another 2 hours. He was thankful we left as early as we did though…

I relapsed Wednesday after 16days, but am back on track… day 2 and really no bad cravings! Also got through St Patrick’s Day SOBER which is a first for me!

I messed up too. 12 days ago. Then again yesterday. I should have logged on here when I got the impulse. 
I’m grateful it wasn’t a blackout yesterday.

I hear you. I justify my drinking with just getting a buzz on but not getting drunk. It is so sad and stupid justification. I pray that I can find a strong abstinence.
