1 month!

Tomorrow makes 1 month on my 1 year journey of no drinking!  I've been been feeling better about myself, more confident in my decisions, and I'm even more excited to see how I feel in 11 months!

Football Sunday...DAY 8

Okay, so this not drinking thing is kind of  a drag, and I admittedly really want to drink.  I mentioned that I was drinking a lot before I stopped cold turkey, and I do mean a lot.  My daily intake was probably about 10-15 beers.  If I wasn't drinking beer, I was drinking hard liquor, and this was a daily thing.  I'm pretty sure that I did some not great things to my body and mind, and I know that it needs to just stop altogether.

I've never been a support group kinda girl, and keeping myself accountable on a blog was my best idea at how to approach this.  I'm looking forward to getting out of this funk.  I always felt funnier and more social drinking than I do today, but I'm guessing that in a year's time, I will look back at my habits and know that this is the better way to live.

Saturday Night...Day 7

It's 11:30 on Saturday night, and I haven't had a drink in 6 days.  I was really craving some cold beer after I got off of work, and I managed to keep myself busy all day.  This is the cleanest my house has been in a long time.

On another note, my new roommate moved in today.

Okay, I'm exhausted from actually getting a ton of work done.  It is kind of nice to be falling asleep instead of passing out from drinking on a  Saturday.  I really was drinking way too much.
