Morning friends, Cyn,what a beautiful post, I haven't been watching the sunrise lately, I did when it was coming up earlier but now I'm usually fixing my hair and face at that time haha,I guess it's the little things to be grateful for, I do have a gratitude journal but I haven't written in it in a while cuz I was just thinking too hard about what to be grateful for let's see
1. I'm grateful my family is healthy
2.I'm grateful that I have a job with hours that work great for me
3.I'm grateful for coffee
Of course there's more but that's three for today
Star,we are in this together and I'm feeling the same as you,al just has no room in my life! I like being fully present and taking care of business, there's always that saying" my worst day sober is better than my best day drinking" or something like that but it's true, Dill, Mr.P(I like that) only started drinking cuz I did,same thing, we got drunk together on a new years eve 2004 and both of us just escalated into al madness, he drank pretty heavy while unemployed for a few years but got it together earlier than me,just started drinking occasionally,I on the other hand was basically drunk daily for 5 years straight, I'm actually surprised that we're still married cuz I did some very unforgivable things during that time
and yea I did spend a night in jail for a domestic violence charge that was later dropped, I was just so...out..of..control! Now Mr.P rarely drinks cuz he's trying to get in shape, he's lucky cuz he just stopped, no mental obsession, no physical cravings, nothing, maybe cuz I used al for self medicating,stress relief and he just used it for socializing who knows? Jeez,I've rambled haha,I do think it's great to talk it out amongst us though, that's what we're here for right, I mean it does get tiresome talking about al,especially if you've been sober for a long time but my last binge scared me,I don't like feeling powerless, anyhoo,off to start my day,hello Lav,I hope we all have a wonderful Wednesday
