Am I settling myself up for a fall?

So I'm 5 weeks sober tomorrow. Things have been going great. I've started a new job and I've started running again. I'm losing weight, sleeping well and generally feeling pretty good. I haven't thought about drinking in the last couple off weeks.
I guess I'm thinking that things seem too easy at the moment. I've been down this road several times already and last time I thought I'd be able to drink again. Yeah right! and of course the problems started again.
I guess I'm thinking that I'll end up lapsing because I'm becoming too flippant about my drink problem.
How do I arm myself against thinking in a few months time it will be ok to drink again? I've read so many other threads where people are really struggling and I really don't want to come across cocky because things are going well. I know too well that it may not be so great in a week's time.
