Nothing much to say but you made another day??????????? What???????? Why do you think A.A.\'s motto is \"one day at a time\"? Every day is make it through the day clean and sober should be a huge victory to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats as you are beating the odds! Do not sell your accomplishments short dear campy. Eric
I guess I did sound a bit silly there huh? lol, you may have to get use to my nonchalant attitude. I really need to work on that too. You are right about this being a victory for me. I have been 6 days sober and did not even try to buy liquor. It has been about 5 years of heav drinking for me, but unfortunately I seemed to have replaced alcohol with soda, brownies, ice cream, and lots of coffee. I just ordered some resistance work out stuff, and hopefully that will keep me busy between working time, and help burn all the sugar I have been taking in. I just feel really like whatever at this moment. Yes bad attitude I know. but I really am trying. I have alot to improve on. I just hope I don\'t get weak and backslide!
If you have a higher power you can talk to, please do so. Ask each morning for strength to make it through the day, thank the same higher power at night for another sober day. Try and eliminate \" backslde and weak \" from your vocabulary. Worked for me, 13 years without a drink.

Jim,
Thank you Jim, I will do that. I guess it would help to eliminate those negative words that I have grown accustomed to using
I have bad habits too: chocolate, Cheetoz, popcorn. You keep on trying, don\'t ever, ever, give up.
My girl friend is going on 7 months w/o alcohol and I\'m happy for both of you.
Keep up the good work. Every day is a celebration that you gave up a drink.
Take care.
Thank you :)
You rock!
