Quitting Drinking!

I have decided to quit drinking alcoholic beverages for one month. This is not a "New Years Resolution", I just happened to have this idea at this time. I'm thinking of going for a month, see how it goes and to see if I can. I'm pretty much a daily drinker so I'm looking forward to see if it will change anything. 

I've told a few people around me about it, and they definitely have their doubts. Hell, so do I! 

I'm on day two of no drinks. Can't say I was tempted but no cravings at all. Last night I was offered two whiskey shots and I kindly said "No thank you!" I feel like my coworkers are testing me, playing with me. Today I saw the Seahawks game at a bar, and my were there so many choices of beer on tap! Oh how I do miss my IPA!  But I sat there and had a tonic with lime, which I totally recommend if you are not drinking but still want to drink at a bar. It was very gin and tonic esque.

Why am I trying to be sober for a month? Few things. Probably wouldn't hurt to slow down, I am almost thirty. I'd like to see how it will affect my body, like energy wise. Waking up earlier, not being so lazy and tired all the time. Also interested about it financially. I wonder how much money I will save by not drinking....that might be the scariest thing to find out!  One of he many reasons why I like to drinking because of the way it affects me around other people. I constantly think I am no fun unless I am drinking. I hope that's not the case and that people can still enjoy my company. We shall see how that goes! And perhaps I will keep updating about it! Ta-ta for now!!
