Are you Shell?

All right y’all…I’m leaving work in a few minutes to go to the nail salon for an appointment. This place almost has a FULL BAR for the taking (no charge for the booze) while you get your services. My plan is to bring a giant diet soda to drink and not even given them the chance to ask me if I’d like something to drink. I did this 3 weeks ago and it worked. But it’d be so easy to have a glass (or 2) of wine while there. And for some reason, 50 days in, that sounds tasty. But I know I’d be so disappointed in myself and it would open the door for me to get more via a stop at the liquor store (which is next door) on the way home. I just wanted to put it in writing that I will be strong and not give in to the temptation. BTW - all nail salons are like that these days. If it gets too bad for me I’ll just stop getting manicures and pedicures. Have a good night folks. Hugs from Texas.

Humm, I prefer a bit of stubble a or really short beard but it’s got to be neat and tidy not just I didn’t bother to shave type stubble

This is great putting your fear and thoughts out there. And it’s a really good idea to bring your own drink with! You will not give in because you are stronger than this. And because you already have 50 days under your belt. And because you know where it ends. And you want to wake up sober on a Saturday to enjoy your weekend to the max :wink: you can do this and then you will tell us how it went your manicure session. Thinking of you @cristelclear​:kissing_heart:

Hi Cristel, it’s crazy how businesses have gone isn’t it, my hairdressers always offer me wine :flushed: even if I go in the morning. Stick to your plan, you can do it and like you say if you find it really hard your sobriety is more important than your nails until you feel a little stronger but I ’m sure you will be fine, you’ve thought it through and made a plan, you’ve got it in hand, enjoy treating yourself :blush:

You know what’s gonna happen if u have a drink and your doing fantastically well making sure u take your own with you… It’s normal to crave or think about drinking as that’s the addiction trying to get us . Enjoy your pamper hun and message anytime u need to reach out x

I was gonna suggest to try a different nail bar but if they are all like that I guess you can’t. Try and enjoy the treat and you’ll be strong with your soda :blush::+1:

Yeah, they are pretty much all like that around here. :roll_eyes: I have my soda in hand and am ready to pamper myself a bit. It’s less than I was spending a month on liquor so I don’t feel guilty at all! Thanks for the encouragement @adeygaga49 and @Natnat! :heart:
