Hanging out with the cats now. I get bursts of energy then get so depressed minutes later and stare at the wall. Have eaten lots of cup cakes today!! Oh God, please never let me drink again🙏. I don't think I can do this detoxing again. I'm so scattered and don't know what to do with myself. I know it will get better.

So happy to have this place. Not sure if I'm even making since. Wishing everyone a lovely & sober memorial day. 😊

I am not getting much done today. I had planned on gardening again but there are too many mosquitos.
I'm all bitten up. Going to take a hot bath and do some cleaning.
