Two Weeks Today
Well today marks two weeks. I never thought I would actually count days without a drink before....I guess I continue to learn new things about myself! LOL

It's been relatively smooth going, only a couple times I have really wanted something but immediately thought about why I am doing this and redirected my thoughts.

So nothing earth shattering on this post but I just wanted to mark the occasion with an acknowledgement of some sort.

I really appreciate all the welcoming people here and the support.

Congratulations on the two weeks! The hard times will outweigh the good and you really begin feeling a lot better too.

Glad that you found this place

2 weeks is great. Stay strong. Power through. Give yourself some love in between.

The obstacle is the path.

Hello Kathy, Congrats that's big stuff keep it up, are you going to AA meetings ??? It helped me big time to have phone numbers to people who care for those times you crave a drink you can call someone an they will help you. People, Places, an Things can get us in trouble, need to hang with positive people it makes all the differents in the world. Find a meeting you like an raise your hand an say your new an need some help an I'll bet you will have people there that will help. Best wishes to you keep up the good work 1 day at a time.

Congrats. Redirecting thoughts, that'll be my issue. Simple, but hard. Thanks for posting!
