I've been struggling today - must be the milestone blues topped on my usual weekend blues.

I posted here a bit. That got me in touch with my feelings and the way my brain ticks and tocks - which is useful. Then I did something I haven't done much of since getting sober - I found something to do around the house. I used to be a task master in active addiction. I'd rock through my to do list with the dangling carrot of alcoholic oblivion at the end of the project. Since quitting I've done more sitting around than ever before. Well, today I broke climbed my way out from between my ears by doing a small project! And you know what, I'm going to do another one! I feel like DG over here!! For the newbies, DG is a friend in the Overs who worked through her sobriety, literally, by fixing her house room by room.

It's back to the womping grind tomorrow Undies, but a short week because US Thanksgiving is Thursday and thanks to a small miracle I have Friday off.
