What a day. I made it to AA. I found a temporary sponsor. Heard a lot of things I needed to hear at the meeting.

I hung out with some friends this afternoon and was able to totally unload on them. They are my best friends and are well aware of my alcoholism and my sons issues. It was nice to be able to just get it all out.

Then I had to pick up my other two kids at another friends house. They were having a big ole picnic. They are not aware that I am an alcoholic. When I got there I was offered a drink...beer, frozen drinks, wine, water or soda. My daughter was right there (well aware of my drinking and sobriety) and she was quick to grab me a water. I was offered a frozen drink again and was able to easily turn it down.

Another sober day is drawing to an end. Even though things weren't great I made it through sober. That is a win.
