Hey Maggie,

I had been sober for 1.5 years and then had a couple of incidents over the holidays and started the Sinclair Method. Basically, with all my pre-Nal incidents I had after my sober stint, I was drinking until I passed out.

I am going to start working out next week so am going to have forced AF days on the nights before to try and get the most benefit from the physical activity, and try to rewire my brain towards exercise. We will see how that goes. Your story makes me think it may be time for that!

My story makes you think it might be time for exercise Jephina ? How? LOL. Actually, on re-reading it, maybe you mean it is time for some AF days ? I have not had any this week...and probably will not now. Must plan some for next week though...

Hi AG ..... My numbers are nowhere near as good this week.....

Hugs, Maggie x

You did it once Maggie (actually twice because of the week you were under the weather), so you can do it again. I know you can.

hugs back x

Aawwww UKB......you always make me feel good. Thank you,

Hugs, Maggie x

the week's not over yet - there's still time

-badger xx

Had AF day yesterday but that was cos I had 6 the day before....panics with forgotten passport and real hassle to sort and we all know that AL helps.....right ? Yeh right !! Anyway will be AF today as well and NO AB either.....going back home today. Had a lovely time.

Hugs, Maggie x

Well, not too brilliant this past week - not going to offer excuses though even though SO much going on. I need to try and get more AF days also try to not have 4 drinks when I do drink - it comes in a 4 pack so is easy to have the 4 !!

Feeling a tad down this morning - just way too much going on,

Hugs, Maggie x

Could you pour one of the drinks away before you start?

Only if you want to that is!

Thank you UKB - that is actually a good idea - I SO appreciate your taking an interest - it really does help! I am just feeling so down - we had an offer on our house but it is way under what it is appraised at and what we are asking - hubs wants to take it so we get it off our backs - I feel 'done'..... way too easy to drink when one feels like that. Yeh, probably an excuse - but right now that is life !! I need to buck myself up !!!

Thank you ... you are so sweet keeping up with me .... it is appreciated !!! And next time I come to UK, we must meet up !!

Hugs, Maggie x

Hi Maggie, I have been super busy with trying to sell my house too and getting all the details attended to with the new one so have not been popping in here much.
Sorry to hear you are down but I can totally relate to this stressful time too. I had a couple come with a Realtor on Friday and they said they really loved it but no offer yet. I am having another Open House today and feeling really worried about selling since my place has been on the Market for like 75 days.
I had my friend here on Thursday and Friday night and we drank way, way too much. I don't know how my friend can do it as she feels fine the next day when I feel like death warmed over. Maybe that was a good thing yesterday as I could not face drinking a drop of alcohol.
I know what your husband is talking about cause I am willing to go down in price too to get this place sold and all the hassle and stress that goes along with it done with!
Hang in there and take a deep breath!
