Day 7 !
What a difference a day makes, or at least a good nights sleep. I need to remember being Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired (HALT) are all triggers. I have the good nutrition thing down, but have not been sleeping more than 2 hours a night, if that, and it has been very disturbed. I woke up better rested on Day 7, and my first thought was being thankful, so very thankful that I am sober. No nightmares! Then I realized that so much that I am angry about, is out of my control. (Serenity Prayer).
My plan for today is to visit my dying father this morning, spend time with him and family, and then I have a lot of work to do, which should engage me all day. Good food in the house, and my craving for alcohol is much diminished. I am keeping my eye on the prize, and each day gets better. Thank You all for your support.
