44 Days Today!

Well, I have made it to 44 days. Had a bit of family drama yesterday, as I got a bit overinvolved in a text sent to my husband by his family (they can be ignorant and insensitive at times.) But the point is that I was able to get through the drama without drinking, and I even got through my grandpa's funeral today as well.

Feeling content tonight. So happy that I am sober, as I am pretty sure there would be many problems in my life right now if I was still drinking. It was not too long ago that I was going to work and unable to focus or concentrate, and I am just thankful I stopped drinking before anyone said anything to me.

And that is just the thing about sobriety. As long as we stay sober, the 12 steps offer us a way to work through the problem no matter how bad it may be.

Thank you all for your support. It has gotten a lot easier, although I have gained about 15 pounds!!!

Congratulations on making it to 44 days! i was not able to handle any of the deaths in my immediate family without alcohol, which only made things much much worse....

I'm really proud for you.
