Glad you got through today. We'll see you tomorrow. you can do this.
No plan whatsoever. The truth is, which may sound laughable, I feel like I'm too busy to think up a plan. I haven't yet prioritized my sobriety, honestly. I have a family that keeps me busy, a lot of work related stress and we are going on vacation in less than 3 weeks, which has me anxious. I have to apply for my visa, get my leave approved, do a handover report, finish ALL of my immediate assignments, get my toddler ready for the journey and being away from his comfort zone for a month, and all this while staying away from alcohol. I don't want to think right now. I just need to get through these 3 weeks and then I'll have a bit of time to think.
I'm staying close to SR, though. Even when I'm not reading and posting, I'm thinking of all of you and what I've read here previously and it's helping so much. I know there's a small heaven on the other side of alcoholism so I'm holding onto that dream. That's what is keeping me going at the moment.
Thanks, ToC!
