I'm going to the spa today! I had a gift certificate since my birthday in Jan. and have finally decided to use it. I guess I didn't care about myself enough when I was drinking to use it or was too busy thinking about drinking. Today, I feel like I deserve to be pampered.

Don't forgot to do nice things for yourself in sobriety!

I have decided once a month I going to do something just for me, a lunch alone, a trip to the library, a walk at the park. I think we feel guilty a lot for mistakes me have made, feelings we have hurt and don't have much self worth.

“Do not brood over your past mistakes and failures as this will only fill your mind with grief, regret and depression. Do not repeat them in the future.”

It was really nice but srange. Felt good to get a massage but scary to leave my baby. I have only left Violet with daddy when I'd go shopping. I left her with a stranger today, it made me nervous. I was able to resist and enjoy the low lights and music to refocus. It's kinda a big deal for me because alcohol made me reclusive.
