37 days sober! Almost to 40! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Yesterdaysnumb · 05-15-2009, 06:30 AM

Good morning guys! Hows everyone?

Everythings going pretty well at our home. I'm so glad that he's finally sober! Yay! He's still going to the meetings. Hasn't really talked to his sponser lately though. He hasn't talked to him since around Monday because his sponsor's been pretty sick lately. Still on the job hunt though! We've been arguing here and there just from the stress of everything that's going on you know? Trying to get our life back on track after tearing it down so much. But, the difference is between arguing sober and arguing drunk is we actually work something out instead of him running from it. So we don't always have to be re-visiting the same issue over and over again. We still need to learn to argue effectively though. Nothing that therapy can't help! Oooooh, we can actually go to therapy without the therapist telling us there's no point because he's an active addict! LOL!

So how was everyone's week?

Praise report YN.

Restoration and healing takes time. Try to enjoy and give praise for the process/progression.

YN, thats good news. Baby steps sometimes, I know.

God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we think, due to His power that works in us.
