    One Step at a Time - July 2012

    You guys all pull together and I love it. Still not drinking and dreading the trip out west. I spoke to my mom tonight and she was coherent and asked if I was coming as they had told her i was even though I had not confirmed it. I feel cornered. Considered a glass of wine tonight but it occurred to me that that would just be punishing myself.

    I totally understand the not going to celebrations to avoid temptation. I go to everything when I'm abstaining. Maybe that's why I always fail in my attempts. I really can't avoid booze in this world I live in so I may as well get used to it.

    Great on everyone's accumulated A/F days!! We rock.

    I do this for my children, my grandchildren, my health, my peace of mind, and mostly for the opportunity to learn to live with my true, unfiltered, clear-headed, vulnerable self.

      Hang there Tippler. You want to be in good form to see your Mom. Real nice of them to tell her the news eh?? Would almost make a person tell Mom they lied. hehe

          Are you sure that's wise? I reckon if you got through that business trip you'll do fine but that was while you were aiming for the elusive 30 so this may be trickier?

                          Hi friends,
                          I'm back from a long bike ride, stopping on my way back into town to water a public garden for which I have responsibility this week. It's kind of like a ghost town out there, nobody on the streets. Looks quiet on this thread too. Have a great 4th, celebrating whatever that means to you.
                          My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.
