So its started! I have just eaten the most ginormous stir fry! I've decided that I'm going to start the healthy eating and exercise plan proper Saturday, so I also had a huge cheese and piccalilli sandwich for lunch!
Himself went to play golf after work so I've had a fantastic evening... bath, onesie, bake off, etc etc and of course he's up the pub now which is absolutely fine by me. Of course if he comes home half cut I'm not quite sure how totally sober me will cope, but we'll see, he isn't generally a problem drunk or anything just extra chatty really...... its so peaceful at the moment just me and the cat!....
I'm working from home tomorrow so I really should get of my arse at some point too, not just for exercise but I think psychologically it'll be good, its all bout the fresh clean theme for this month!
I'm hoping that this month will be a chance to reflect on a lot of things, but including my relationship with alcohol, the ups and downs and whether basically its still working for me?! Some things are merely habits and have passed their usefulness.... Im reading a book called "7 days to Safe Social Drinking" it really focusses on the nitty gritty of habits and behaviour and has a psychological approach, neurological even. This is as opposed to the AA evangelical, medical illness, type approach which I've never favoured.
I've learned top tips like switching drinks can help. I've been drinking wine for years, and as we all know its very strong and a potent mistress! I quite like bottled beer.... I may try that next month!
Anyway I have the chance to watch Aussie Masterchef in silence! Laters!!
