I got abstinent from compulsive overeating and I feel wonderful! I am down 15 lbs and fitting into shirts and jeans I have just longed to wear.

With my addict mentality I have switched back and forth between food addiction and drugs for many many years. I believe my meth addiction was spurred on for so long because of my food addiction.

Today I am living in the solution. I am working a commited plan of abstinece. I am emailing my sponsor my food plan daily. I will also do a meeting and make 3 outreach calls to people in recovery.

With my food in order today, my life will follow.

He is my other half. I think this has been the most awesome 7 years of my life. When I met my hubby we were both widowed one year and both still hurting....God brought us together and for that I am eternallly grateful.

On the 20th of this month will be my 18 month clean date!

God is soooo good....

I have lots to do today...ciao!

A lady from recovery I met recently was going to come by for a cup of coffee, so I got up and cleaned up even mopped my kitchen and she had to cancel. I was fine with it and basked in my clean house!

Hubby stayed home from work today and went hunting. He didn't get anything, but he enjoyed his day.

I did get my list done the other day! I want to do something cute in my room now that our downstairs bathroom is done. It looks so nice in there, it looks like a different persons house! I had the peach colored tile walls and the sink re-surfaced, then I painted the walls sage on up to the ceiling.

I really want to paint my bedroom, but it is such a huge job to tackle!

I like how the blogs is highlighted now as a reminder to write..........

I have a lot to do today:

Vacuum whole house
clean carpets
upstairs bathroom
sons room
take desk to basement
sweep and mop floors
sort thru summer to winter clothes

I also have been a bit bummed about a job lead I had that was supposed to start after the first of the year. It fell apart. It had nothing to do with me, but it was about someone else choosing to stay there. I know God has another plan for me, I just need to figure things out.

I am excited to go to CA in just 28 days. I will sleep in my old bedroom. :-) I have not been back to my parents house in 2 1/2 years.

It was cold here this morning when I took my son to school. Only 12 degrees out.

I am trying to not call CA home anymore. I love my husband, I love our home here in WI. I only whine about it in the winter. I have chosen to not complain about the cold this year. Just dress warm and think positive about it. It will happen each year regardless of my additude.

Well, I better get started on my day........ ]]> Lily http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/blogs/lily/1436-day-306-clean-sober.html http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/blogs/lily/16-day-32.html Sat, 22 Dec 2007 03:46:52 GMT Today I have 32 days clean and sober.

I am feeling much more normal now and got a lot done today. Had very little thought about using. Cannot even recall one time I thought about it.

Took my older son shopping again tonight, even went to a live Nativity Scene w/ the boys.

Keep thinking about my dog who died Wednesday night. My dog was suffering for a few hours and I keep seeing her in the basement in my mind. I know I need to just quit fixing on it. My husband told me not to either.

That is where I am at today...
