    Sunday evening Day 31

    Two hour hike today, cleaned the house and now
    chilling with a protein fruit smoothies.
    65 degrees and beautiful today.
    I feel very calm and centered. No smokes
    and no drinks. I am reiterating here- but it's different
    this time. I'm not going to let my guard down
    but at this point I'm not even having thoughts
    of any of that.
    I ordered the MWO CDs but have not even had
    time to open them. Not sure if I need to keep
    them, especially now that I have to pay $2400
    for the wonderful oral surgery I had.
    No worries though; everything will work out the way
    it's supposed to.
    I wish everyone well and many happy sober days.
    I'm feeling like a miracle has happened. But
    really I know that it was just that I reached a point,
    a cross road so to speak where a choice had to
    be made. I chose to live.

      Alcohol does me no favors.

      Pouring poison down your throat is just plain STUPID!

          Sunday evening Day 31

          Well done Ann, I'm with you on this one as we're sort of at the same level. Its 5 weeks today since I had my last alcoholic drink (Sun 2nd Oct) and I feel the same as you. I haven't thought about drinking, wanted to drink, had any temptations at all. And I really can't understand why its so different. I think in some ways I've just grown tired of the drinking, feeling unwell, spending all my money, the constant wasted weekends, hangovers. I'm ready for this new feeling of peace, contentment and feel like my whole mind and body are having a rest from everything. Life is so much better. I actually have time, more than I ever have before, to focus on other things. I know that I can't become complacent. I have had the opportunity to drink on quite a lot of occasions since 2nd October, but I just haven't been interested. I haven't tried supplements, tapes, counselling or anything. I have tried meditation/supplements before and have read numerous books about giving up the drink but none of them have ever worked. If anyone knows the magic formula as to why things suddenly change please let me know!!! Anyway, thats me done for another alcohol free weekend, off to bed and up and ready for another working week and a hangover free Monday. Night all. x

            Thanks you guys!

            Some day I would like to be able to help people
            with alcohol addiction. I know I know it's early
            on but still... A few years from now I mean-when
            I would have some credibility. So many people
            are suffering.
            I don't know how I would do that since I'm certainly
            never going to be an AA sponsor or anything like
            that. We will see how it works out.
            I have some bog company meetings coming up
            and usually I'm the one getting drunk at the dinners
            etc. It's going to be great to be sober. I just have
            no desire; I don't foresee a problem. As I said
            on a different post I have beer in the fridge that
            is my boyfriend's. The thought of drinking it
            makes me gag. Before (drunk days ) there would
            never be any of his beer left when he returned
            from out of town . Hahahaha.
            Because as we all know you gotta keep on drinking
            until there's nothing left and hope to NOT drive
            drunk to get more.
            I got a new car in July and it's nice to know
            it's not going to smell funky and have burns, dings
            or anything else due to drunken nonsense.
            Life is good-except for my extra 20 lbs, and that's
            a work in progress
            Peace and love to all

              Congratulations on 31 days Ann!

              Great post's, and you are rockin' it. Keep it going friend.

              There are plenty of ways you can work with folk's with AL addictions in the future, and sadly, it's a growth 'industry'.

              Bravo, and have a great week.
