Day 19

Today is my 19th day of sobriety.

I received some financial news today that was much better than expected.

Just a short while ago, that would have been a perfect excuse to drink too much and wake up the next day feeling like death on a cracker.

But that was the old Fool.

I read something here on SR the other day that has really stuck with me..."Relapse does not have to be part of your recovery....You can have had your last drink."

I found that to be quite profound.

I am taking things as they come. I am finding that willpower is like a muscle....If you exercise it, it gets stronger.

Every day sober is a victory guys. Thanks for listening.
