Ok so 9:30pm tonight would’ve been 2 days! But I failed & had 2 wines at dinner tonight. Got home & fought the urge to crack a bottle open, currently drinking tea. I won’t be to hard on myself because this is my first attempt at sobriety. Tomorrow is a new day. I will make it to day 3 this time!

Hey Linda, I am sorry to hear that. Just a maybe stupid question: why did you have this bottle in the house? When I got sober I cleaned my house of all the booze so that when I should be craving I have to go to buy it which gives me time to think and breathe. Some weeks after I removed all the fancy wine glasses from my apartment to the cellar. Later gave them away. My apartment is booze free now.

Avoid social occasions for a while?
I have yet to get rid of our wine collection. I was hoping to just be strong enough to avoid it.

Go Linda! Nothing changes if nothing changes 
well done for getting right back at it and seeing where you lost your way… that knowledge is power in deed

Yeah, you definitely should in the early stages. Not like a you have absolutely advice. Sorry. Some might be strong enough but I know far more who banned it in their home.
When I removed my glass collection I was also like hmmm, really? But it is like a back door leaned on. Okay, maybe it’s different as I live alone. But on the other side when I would have guests, either they drink out of other glasses or they stay sober for the visit. My home, my rules.
