Made it through the weekend
I am very proud of myself. I haven't had a drink since 7-6, it's been 4 days. I am having bad headaches that don't seem to go away. Of course I am drinking lots of soda though. But soda is better than beer. I stayed at my mother's all weekend. I have told her of my decision to quit drinking and she is very supportive. Yesterday we did some shopping. I bought a bunch of books and then we went to Joanne's Fabrics and I bought some nice oriental brocade fabric to make purses and also got a pattern for purses. I am going to keep myself busy and start making a lot of jewelry, scraves and purses that I can start selling. I slept until 11:30 today. Last night I could not get to sleep. When I do sleep I sweat horribly. I don't know if this has to do with withdrawals or not. I just spoke with my father and told him how I have stopped drinking. He is very happy with my decison. I also told him that I think my step-mother is an alcoholic. I know she is. I told him he really needs to watch and monitor her. I am not trying to be an alcohol cop but she is heading down a bad bad path. Today is so sunny and warm. I was supposed to go to the beach but overslept. I called S and told her to get her ass here. I'm hoping we can go swimming in my pool. I told her I just saw the hottest guys head towards the pool alone. He was nice and muscular and had tattoo's. I have taken tomorrow off because I had to go in and work a few hours on Saturday. I'm hoping to catch up with Missy and play some golf or go to the beach. If not there are some other apartments I need to check out. I am still unsure of what to do with the apartment thing. I was under the impression that we could have dogs in my building. This is because my neigbor downstairs has one. I was all set to adopt a dog. My mother told me she would pay the adoption fee for me for a dog. So I got so excited because I found a beautiful male pomeranian on petfinder. I made an appt to see the dog. Then I went to the complex office to get a letter saying they allow dogs here. Of course they misled me and told me they only allow dogs in 2 buildings (which I am not in). So that bummed me out. I am now on a waiting list to move to another building. We'll see. Gotta go, S invited me to a cookout, so I'm going to do that and byoc (bring your own cola).
