Not to mention I have 30 days...today.

Today wasn't my favourite day ever, but it is life. That said? If I want to live, I have to deal. If I had drunk I would be a useless, emotional heap on the floor right about now. Drunk texting and just plain cutting my nose to spite my face.
Tomorrow I get to wake up clear headed after actually sleeping. No pangs of anxiety startling me awake. No insaitable thirst. No shakes. No embarrassment nor shame.

Thank you all for being here. Following a plan, a program and really committing to getting well with you all supporting is a cozy, homey feeling.

I have this as my screen saver and it made me think of you when I read your post. Well done.
