All they do is drink in a crumby bar.<br />These few were big drinkers including me.<br />Most of my other friends I love to meet for lunch, coffee, walks, yoga, or other fun stuff!<br />xo<br />WendyUntipsyteacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14975521042875808241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-10020068887771017202015-05-08T13:03:59.310-07:002015-05-08T13:03:59.310-07:00I think old friends are the trickiest sober nights...I think old friends are the trickiest sober nights out!

Haven't seen them in years, decades some of them. Feel so insecure about not drinking I was considering joining in to avoid the conversation. I don't want to though. I guess not drinking for health reasons is banal enough. It's feeling exposed that's frightening. And feeling a fraud because I don't really believe I'm strong enough to stay sober for ever.Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371166334887188048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-62587748543840195712015-05-08T09:53:56.440-07:002015-05-08T09:53:56.440-07:00Go us!

Heavy drinkers get uncomfortable when one of the pack realizes sober is better.<br />But there are so many new people to meet! Lovely, kind people who don't spend their time drinking their loves away.<br />It's very eye opening.<br /><br />AnneAinsobrietyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15642935819165465190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763877266715908242.post-44442941725355745262015-05-08T06:45:32.236-07:002015-05-08T06:45:32.236-07:00Happy friday SM.

I cannot recommend this book enough. The book is completely altering the way that I perceive alcohol. I am beginning to realise that drinking alcohol has absolutely no positive benefits at all. It now has no place in my life anymore so why should I miss it? Suddenly, this is not seeming like a sacrifice anymore, but a blessing. a route to freedom, a release from the 'One day at a time mentality'. Time to keep breaking down the brainwashing and BS that surrounds the drug called alcohol. Time to take back the freedon that I and my family deserve. Feeling great today. Have a wonderful weekend SM xTallaxohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13386522171119897358noreply@blogger.com
