Hi I am venus and I am an alcoholic.

Thanks to the first thread by Jesuswhatnow I have not had a drink for a long time.

There are lots of us on here, please lurk, post, whatever does it for you. If you are worried about how much you drink and your inability to stop when you want to, then someone on here can probably understand.

ZanyWany · 21/11/2010 21:14

OK here goes but not very exciting. He is a teacher, has 3 DD's and split from his wife in Feb. He seem sVery kind and easy to talk to, good looking and generally lovely. I made it clear at the beginning I wanted to be just friends because I know my head is soo messed up from last relationship but I really like this guy.

To make things more complicated the guy I had my second date with on friday is tooo keeeen.

Mouseface · 21/11/2010 21:33

night night mousie...day 1 (again) done and dusted.Lets see if I can make it two in a row tomorrow.
night all - Zany, go for it girl! this bus needs some juicy sex gossip. (eeewww, I mean the juicy to refer to the gossip, not the sex IYSWIM)

Whitenapteen · 21/11/2010 22:07

Just back in. Heartwarming to read so many positive posts this afternoon and evening.

noteven you have been so determined in the face of every possible adversity over the last few days - you are a strong woman and should be immensely proud of yourself. Tomorrow I hope that your GP practice will pull out all the stops and give you the support you need with not drinking and a certificate to stay off work while you get better from the 'flu. Hope sleep comes (if not already in the land of nod).

Night night all.

jesuswhatnext · 21/11/2010 22:13

ma! Grin, im off to bed, all this talk of juicy sex gossip has made me old! Grin

anyway - he sounds nice zany!

night all - see you in the morning!

btw - next week sees the beginning of my party season - as part of my economy drive i am digging out all last years stuff and not buying anything new to wear - i feel very virtuous! Grin (dh feels very relieved! Grin)

AnotherMumOnHere · 21/11/2010 22:22

Congratulations to everyone who has gotten thru another day without the evil booze. For those that didnt - get to bed and start again tomorrow. Tomorrow is another day.

noteven if i was you I may even consider going to the doctors in person and telling them at reception that i wanted an emergency appointment. That might not suit you but its another option.

Take care all. Hope you all have a good nights sleep. Be good. xx

Silver66 · 22/11/2010 00:36

anyone still awake??? Grin

AnotherMumOnHere · 22/11/2010 00:39

Silver66 · 22/11/2010 00:42

nothing up just wanted to chat Wink x

AnotherMumOnHere · 22/11/2010 00:44

so tell me where you are at. How ur day has been.

Silver66 · 22/11/2010 00:50

Pretty good thank you - had lovely roast dinner with DD - DP away in France at the moment - watched crap TV and that's about it Grin How about you - how was your day? xxx

AnotherMumOnHere · 22/11/2010 00:56

Where to start. ROFL. Sunday is a ME day. Dont ever do much but last week was a week when my elder daughter needed me and I was there. So this weekend for ME has been SO important. Unfortunately I'm absolutely loaded with cold.

Im a real family person. Very happily divorced with 4DC (all adults) and grandchildren.

Isnt the weekend always bad for tv - esp if you dont like that dreadful prog (XF).

I usually have a roast dinner while eating out with my elder son (Its only £.69 each and you couldnt make it for that).

I'm hoping I manage to sweat another bit of the cold out of myself tonight and i dont feel so bad tomorrow. (I hate having a runny nose and runny eyes ROFL).

AnotherMumOnHere · 22/11/2010 00:57

That price for roast dinner should read £3.69 - i should have proof read before i pressed post button.

Fortheverylasttime · 22/11/2010 01:00

You ok, Silver? I am a bit jealous about you and yours dashing here and there to France.

Fortheverylasttime · 22/11/2010 01:01

I still haven't got an oven, so less of the lovely roast everythings.

Silver66 · 22/11/2010 01:02

Hey Another - sounds like you are OK in yourself - Off to bed now for me - sweet dreams lovely - Grin xxx

Fortheverylasttime · 22/11/2010 01:02

Sob, sob. Grin
I have a puppy.

Fortheverylasttime · 22/11/2010 01:03

Night, Silver,x.
