I Woke Up
I'm very grateful for waking up sober this morning:
No hangover
No blood, no bruises
I feel like eating, not drinking my breakfast
The car is in the garage, un-damaged
WIFE is next to me
I know where the kids are
No buddies passed out in the basement
House is clean
I have some money in my pocket
Also in sobriety:
I still have morning breath
It still rains when I want the sun
The porch still needs to be swept
I still have to pay the bills
The lawn still needs mowed
The dog still have to pick up dog crap in the yard
--------------------------------------------------------
The world and life goes on whether sober or drunk. The first set of situations were always within my control, but being full of drink, I didn't care. The second set were never within my control, but without the drink and the help of my HP I have to tools to accept them and act in a positive manner towards them.
To all those who want it, have a good Easter weekend. To those who don't care, I wish you a good weekend.
