I've been sober for a few 24 hours and just recently (in the last 6 months) have I honestly been able to feel comfortable with alcohol in the house. He's been extremely supportive and kept his drinking outside the home up until I felt I was ready.

That being said, I concentrate on my recovery and when I screw up and get pissy I apologize. I'm not perfect. I mess up, I'm human. He knows it and he screws up too. We move on.

It was rocky for awhile, and life is messy. Regular human beings are not happy all the time. Sure we want to be, but that's not going to happen. In recovery or not, life is messy. At least in recovery I have the tools to help me handle those messy feelings. Did I say messy enough? LOL

Hang on, don't drink and keep showing up here. Thank you for posting. It's such a great reminder.
