Back to Work
I have been sober since my accident, five days to be exact. It has been difficult but not quite as hard as I had expected. I know that the days to come are going to get more intense as I get back into the swing of normal every day life and responsibilities. For the past week I have been, for the most part, confined to my apartment, and today is the last day. Tomorrow, I am scheduled to go back to work and live normally. I am starting to wonder if with the regular events, things will get harder. For the past week, I have been in pain, confined to the couch and been taken care of by the most wonderful woman. When things get back to normal, am I still going to be able to be strong? Or will I give in? I want more than anything to believe that it is going to keep going on like this, the thought comes, dismiss it, but what happens when I am having that hard day at work, and all I want is to come home and have that one glass of wine, which will no doubt to into a bottle at least?
