yesterday was tough … and nudity

ldederer (day 8):

Yesterday was tough, the weather was shit, my husband was a shit, so the day was shit.  I had major drinking urges, and found a bottle of MY wine in my husband’s backseat. Went to bed at 7pm.”

me:

this is really perfect. you did exactly the right thing.  hooray for you. hope today is a better day. love, me”

Alana (day 5):

a bit worried about the weekend. hubs wants to go out to dinner saturday night, but i’m not sure i can resist [wolfie] in that scenario.  i asked if we could instead go to a movie (something we have NEVER done at night).  can’t believe he agreed.  it’s not that i want or expect him to not drink just because i’m abstaining (he can, after all, stop when it’s time to stop), so i’m quite touched that he’s willing to go “sober” with me for an evening…”

me:

just imagine 🙂 a sober date with a guy who loves you and wants to support you. imagine sober times spent together actually having a conversation. hmm. I suspect there may be nudity. ha!”

Alana:

i was in a meeting (with a bunch of suits discussing business stuff – ugh) when i received your message. laughed out loud!”

me:

excellent. my job here is done.”

I want to put this online, to hold myself accountable. I want to document the noise in my head. I'm tired of thinking about drinking. date of last drink: june 30, 2012
