Hello Friends,

I got drunk last night and passed out on the couch. I have this habit of leaving things "on" when I do that. Candles burning (jar candles) - not minimizing the dangerness of that but anyway... also leaving the toaster oven on. I've done that twice over the last year. I did it again last night. My husband who has been sober for 29 years is frustrated with me to say the least.

I KNOW certain aspects of my life are out of control. Thankfully work is the one area I haven't made any alcohol-related mistakes (yet). I love my job and it takes my mind off of everything so maybe that's why. But I fear if I don't get sober eventually my job will be affected as well.

So I'm making a new commitment today. I have been to the same meeting for a while now and I not only need new meetings but I need a sponsor and I'm going to actively pursue that. I'm thinking about trying 90 meetings in 90 days. Also coming here daily to post and read. I just know that continuing on this path I'm on right now is going to lead to lots of bad things.

Thanks for listening. I wish you all peace and blessings today.

It sounds like a good plan.

It's a great idea to come here often, to read and post. I'm glad you're working on your recovery.

90 in 90 works for a lot of people. To be honest, for me, it was more like 80 in 90 but it worked anyway.

Change is necessary because the same man/women will drink again

Glad you are here.

Joining the daily support thread on SR got to me where I love being.

Embracing sobriety unconditionally is different from 'giving up' and it worked for me

I remember once waking up to the fire alarm because I fell asleep with a pizza in the oven and it burned to a black coal while I slept. I also left pots going that smoldered all night I'm lucky not to have burned the place down by now...
