Day 8 Almost falling off the wagon

Today I decided that I would add back wine to my flush. I thought, why not? I really felt that I wanted, and deserved, one (or two) glasses of wine so I had decided to have one. I think I was just having an off day.

It started out fine. I got up and logged onto my computer and began working. I went for a 40 minutes walk with my husband and my dogs. I made a big pot of lentil soup and another of rattatouie. I had a veggie burger and corn for lunch and then it just went down hill. I started to get cranky and then I decided that I would have a drink at the end of the day.

I went and got my hair cut and colored (went back to my natural color).
, which took about 2 hours. When I got home it was 5:00 (happy hour) and I had already decided that I would NOT have a glass of wine. Maybe getting out of the house for a couple hours is just what I needed. I feel better now.

It's 7:30 and I'm gonna cook up some gluten-free spagghetii for dinner and then call it a day. Glad I didn't cave.

Eight down, six to go.

    You are tougher and stronger than I ever thought...and that's saying something 'cause I think you're tough as nails!
