Ok if you would like me to keep posting as to how the moderation thing is going that would be fine by me, if no one else here minds me doing that.
So far, I had two drinks on Thursday, I found them two strong though with 2 oz of alcohol, so that is why I am switching to 1.5 OZ in a mixed drink. Sat I had two 1.5 OZ mixed drinks.
From now on a Drink indicates 1.5 onces of alcohol in a mixed drink unless otherwise specified.
I didn't go crazy and drink the whole bottle or anything.
Will keep you posted.

Sylvia,
It sounds like you may be a candidate for MM.
It is still necessary to abstain for atleast 30 days before trying it though.

Some who find they can't moderate while they are still drinking heavily, may find they can AFTER a period of abstinence.

Hi again, Just gettin home on Friday evening and I saw a rainbow on my way home...sure wouldn't have noticed that if I was drinking and using! Had my yearly physical today and took my youngest daughter to the Doctor....had my house professionally cleaned today and now me and my daughters are gonna kick back and watch a couple of movies (my Girls are 15 and 19) ~ my boyfriend may come by too..life is good, none of us are drinking or using....we all are enjoying life pretty much...even though my youngest has been in trouble as of late...but for today, because I only have today, things are pretty good. Hope things are well with you Cailyn!
VW Girl,
I have had lots of work to catch up on so mostly I have just been working, working working.
Haven't had much time to just play, but will get out and do something besides just work as soon as I get the chance.
We are getting a weight machine set up so we can start working out, think that will be good for us.

Glad to hear your doing well. Good idea to get out and do something fun. Exercise is so beneficial too!
I have kept my own personal moderation goals this week.
No more than 6 standard drinks a week and no more than 2(standard) on any given day.
Now I suppose I will be told that that means I was never a "Real Alcoholic" in the first place?

Hi Cailyn! Remember, no one can determine if you are an alcoholic but yourself. Hope you don't have to work today. We had hail here in SoCal, we don't get too much weather here, so it was kinda cool!
Well, I have some bookeeping to do today, but that is about it.
It is a little bit cloudy here today in AZ, which is actually kinda nice as it is always so sunny here.

You have a great weekend too.
