Still, it would have gone away eventually. It was just dumb of me. Dumb, dumb, dumb. But I am back and I am committed to racking up those sober days again. I will hit 104 again, and more. I just keep thinking that I can be 6 months sober at Christmas. Anyway, I'm going on vacation tomorrow for a couple weeks so I won't be around, but I will be sober!
Long term sobriety is the goal and you've got it in your sights! I feel terrified when my sponsor talks about how she had 7 years and relapsed for 6 months. No thank you. Anything anyone tells me about a relapse I take to heart very seriously. Yay a sober Christmas sounds alright to me goodness, you're leaving for vacation too?!? Have a good trip, enjoy yourself and remember how much hangovers suck!
