I kept thinking about how someone the other day on horrible night #1 of sobriety said if I made it through that, I never would have to again. So that pulled me back from a disaster. Thank you God!!!!!
Awesome! And that’s how you add one day after the other and it gets easier and easier!

Day three done with

How are you doing Sohard? I'm in there there with you all the way. Just finished with day three sober (again) here in South Africa. Liver pain and spleen hurts. But I know it will get better; this is certainly not my first attempt at detox. How about you? Any pain? Keep in touch.

Good luck.

Utter craziness. I stopped by my 80 year old mother's home this evening to put in some light bulbs. She asked me to open a bottle of wine for her before I left. I went and got her wine opener, which had a cork lodged deep inside. After pulling and twisting, I eventually used my teeth to break it free (I never had this problem bc I would buy twist off to get to my wine quicker). I used her now available wine opener to open her a new bottle, pour her a glass, and go on my merry way. All fine, right? Even impressive, right??

Half way home I started thinking nutso thoughts, like: there was probably old wine on that cork I finally got free. So, I sort of cheated accidentally if I got any on my tongue when I pulled it off with my teeth, right? So, maybe I should drink now and start fresh tomorrow. God damnit!
