Finishing the CD and STRESS!

[sunrise1]

Long hours put in today... not only on the CD, but somehow my autodraft didn't go through for our health insurance and it was cancelled!!! I had to do the "squeaky wheel" thing, talk with 5 or 6 different people at the insurance Co, get a letter from my bank... but in the end they re-instated us. I am SO relieved. Not only is the next plan we would have to go with $200 more per month, but the cancellation would be effective Sep 1... I have had a LOT of dr visits and things... we would find ourselves 100% responsible for all of them. When I got the final call where they finally caved, I literally dropped to my knees and thanked God. Our insurance is already expensive... and the costs of losing it would totally sink us.

So- after that, I did some follow up on our car insurance issue after being struck while parked and playing a wedding in August. It's taking an awfully long time to get the ball rolling, but I did locate our eyewitness and that is a big step forward.

And now the odd part... all evening long, I have been longing to be in some kind of altered state. I wouldn't even describe it as a craving... just really wanted to check out in some form for a few hours. Of course- - I did not. But I thought about how good a drink would taste and feel more than once tonight. I attribute a lot of that to the stressful day and week, but it was still a weird feeling.

5 days away from my 60 days... And today marks the longest I have ever maintained sobriety ever.

Good for you for not giving in! Remember, there's nothing so bad that alcohol can't make it worse.

That is so great to "hear" that you are that close to 60 days. I CAN'T WAIT til I get there
