I put out the 50 Day Challenge to myself (and others) last Monday. Many people have questioned a few things about my plan to cease alcohol consumption for 50 days - so let's get a few things straight.
- Yes, I did have at least one glass of wine per day, perfect ending to my day (& CBC National News)
- The point is to spend less money at the LCBO or local drinking establishments
- I have not stopped completely - some social situations this past weekend involved wine
I want to drink less for a few reasons: less money spent, fewer calories and has that glass of wine become a crutch? This past weekend, both times that I did drink, involved not spending any money - sort of an "all inclusive" deal. I did find that when Friday rolled around and tradition around my house is for people to come and eat and enjoy - typical Friday after work party. This Friday I did not have to visit the wine store - my stock was full, the evening "wind-down" vino that I eliminated created less of strain on my wallet and that $40 or $50 I would of spent will go into my charity fund. I guess it is all about choices, and if I can give up my Sunday to Friday glass of vino - could someone give up their daily latte habit and use that savings to make a difference. Green tea makes me just as happy!
Peace & Happiness Everyone - will have more for you next week! vagi
