Yesterday I drank after 2 weeks of sobriety… I am grateful for this platform because I know I have no failed but that’s it’s part of the disease … instead of binge drinking like I would have in the past I took the tools I had learned in sobriety and went to the park and bike riding… and I am going to be kind to myself and not beat myself but brush it off and remember as one person on this platform says play the tape forward and realize that is not where I want to be !

Hang in there. Each day is a new one. Get to a meeting every day and listen. Get a big book and read it.

Good morning Flo, a slip up is not the end of the world true. On the same note do not become complacent and think you can have a drink now and again. It doesn't work like that. If you haven't read it, read it now. Alcohol Explained by William Porter. It's easy to read and understand what alcohol does to keep you addicted.
You handled it perfectly. I on the past let it get the best of me is why I mention it. Best of luck.
