Clever thinking,
The Universe
----------------------------
I am sorry to hear about all the losses around here. Thrilled to see everyone coming together to help each other. I think the talking and realizing where we have been and where we want to go is the path that takes us to sobriety. Going through the physical motions of AF or mods is great but there is an emotional attachment to the alcohol and it helped put us in this situation to start. Thinking it through, taking time to be good to yourself, little rewards even if it is the excitement of waking up sober. It feels so grand! Lorelei, passing by the liquor store is a great accomplishment!!
Who said they could not drink just one hard alcohol? Switch to the wine for a few months is a great idea. Then just promise yourself, one drink when you have hard alcohol. Promise yourself no sneaking. All of those things have really helped me.
I have been working quite a bit - couple fun PR campaign projects so really great! Having a bunch of medical tests run - recalls on this old body . . .not so fun. My husband bought a new mountain bike and put together his old one that is light as a feather for me. We went out a couple days ago. All braced up, I looked pretty bionic but I had the best time! We have not been able to share a ton of different sports for a few years, I think he was more excited than me even. The level of his caring that has shown up around my tests is pretty special. Been awake since about 2 this morning. Think I am subconsciously concerned about an MRI I had yesterday, they would not give me even half a hint as to what they saw. Patience . . . sigh.
Weather is beautiful and I am hoping to get back out and enjoy some more breezy cool days.
Hang in, you are pulling this off . . . slowly but surely we change our habits and thoughts.
Hugs and Love to all of you!
