Nailed it

Dinner was totally amazing.  The first half was tedius as I watched my brother and dad nail a beautiful bottle of red wine at dinner.  I got a lemonade.  I have most defanitally never ordered a lemonade at a restaurant …. in my adultish years.  And it was amazing.  Who knew it complemented surf and turf so well. I\’m totally relieved.  We all had a good time.  Dad said I was glowing….then asked if i was pregnant. No no, just 6 days sober!  

Hump day blues

This is already the longest I\’ve gone with out a wind down drink afterwork or uni in I could probably say years.  And suddenly I\’m not sure if this is all I cracked it up to be.  I have a dinner with my dad and brother tomorrow which will be my biggest test yet as they are both fine drinkers.  But I\’ve made such a fuss about this all that I have to last at least the week.  And then hopefully each week from that.  I\’m still positive but maybe have over looked how much this is going to challenge me.  I have already made a wee saving this week which will grow over the weekend… I might just put those savings towards a sky drive with Rob while he\’s up this weekend.  Its all good.  Just not as good as I thought.

Day One.

Day One – I have butterflies.  Theres quite the facebook conversation to my status update of \’3 months sobriety\’.  I’ve been trying to find a profile picture – but I’m drinking in the majority of them…..photobooth?
