I am a 51 year old wife, teacher and mother of 2. I have a 21 year old son and a 25 year old daughter. New intro...I am sober and love it! It isn't always easy but it is always worth it! Old intro...I am fighting this damn drug called alcohol. I have been a weekend binge drinker for 30 years. I binge 2-3 times a month on a Friday or Saturday, but alcohol kicks my butt every single day of my life. I am sick of it!

8/8/12 (Wed) - Day 8 - feeling good, finally!
Finally! I slept well last night and finally woke up feeling good, ready to take on the day. 8 days - it took 8 days since my last binge to finally start feeling better and sleeping! I think I am now officially physically done with alcohol. Now it is time to "get my armor on" to take on the mental battle of what is to come! I need to remember - I can have a relaxing, productive, self preserving, proud, happy weekend. It may not be the "fun" that I am used to, but I am not willing to suffer all of the consequences for that kind of "fun." I need to redefine "fun."

there is something deliciously fun about sleeping well, about cranberry juice, and about remembering the idiotic things you've said and laughed about. Day 8 is so great, hooray for you :)
