Month to moderation


4 years ago 0 26 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I achieved my 1 month of no alcohol and that was great. My next goal was to buy some vodka, my favorite poison and see if I could moderate my drinking. That part of this experiment did not go too well. I was hoping that bottle would last a week or more and I would have a drink or two through the day. Once I start I am unable to moderate. I went through 1.75 liters in 3 days of steady sipping. Today is now another day one and I will ponder on what or where to go from here.

My main reason for not drinking was to not spend all of my money on booze. I was paying my bills and such but draining all my extra cash on alcohol. Not a very sound financial plan. lets see if I can restart my no alcohol journey and continue to keep some money in my bank account. Maybe I should look at making a still ( joking of course).

Right now I have not set any long term goals and just want to be alcohol free for the few days while I ponder my capabilities. 

Take care and be strong.
