It was a WOW weekend ~

This past weekend was my annual girls weekend up north.  As much as I was very afraid to go as I was nervous I would comprimise my sobriety, I AM SO GLAD I went!! I had initially went in thinking I would treat myself to "1" on Friday night.  I decided to take a 'sip' of someones beer and thought.... "NO.. I think I will not have that '1' as that little bitty sip tasted too good and I dont see JUST ONE in my future.."   I was very open and honest with the gals that I was with and that really helped with accountability.  I did have alot of negative thoughts to myself wondering if they still enjoyed my company in my soberness, however, I had nothing to worry about.  I am FUN without alcohol...!! Thanks for letting me share!!  I hope one and all have a wonderful day!

I am so glad you did not drink this past weekend. Yes, you are fun without alcohol. Be good to yourself and go to a meeting, if you are in AA. It always helps to get back into the swing of things. Keep up the good work. Hugs, trish

Wow is right, Dana!  I am so glad you made it.  and O.M.G!  if I had one sip...that would have been it.  I don't have any drinking brakes on me.  Not installed.  So I am highly impressed that you were taste it and leave it.  That would have been waaaay to risky for me. And yes!  I think I am much more fun without alcohol.  Faster, and better jokes! 

Thanks Cynthia ~ YES and fun relaxing weekend was had!
