I agree sydneyman. I think it's about 3 weeks now that I haven't entertained the thought of drinking. I've actually wondered what's wrong with me. I thought I should be struggling more. I'm glad that I'm not, and I'll enjoy that for as long as it lasts. It dawned on me today that not struggling doesn't mean there's something wrong with me because there's no hard and fast "right" way to stay sober. Take what works and run with it!
I have had a lot going on. My car is all busted and my son and I have to move soon, and these things are going to be expensive on top of all the usual stuff. But I am oddly calm. It's almost eerie to me. I'm not freaking out and fretting like I used to, I'm just taking it in stride. Weird.
