Its a beautiful day outside
I am still sober SR peeps. I have been through one hell of a ride lately, and I am finally coming back to planet Earth (as of last night). I went back to my doctor and explained in detail my situation, the situation I am dealing with, and everything about why I am at the doctor. Dealing with a family members illness is hard and I was completely overwhelmed by the situation. The light sedative prescribed is used only in times of complete dysfunction, and I was very quick to tell my doctor of my recovery from alcoholism. Being the good doctor that he is, he told me that I need to be monitored closely and will go back to him in 2 weeks for a checkup. He says that my recovery is very important and so he does not want to ignite the fire in my brain that says I can drink. I dont want to drink. I do understand that this is a slippery slope. I assure you all that he is guiding me in the right direction. I have been honest and accountability is the name of this game. He has suggested that I check into counseling and get a professionals help with grief and traumatic situations. So, I made the phone calls this morning to find a professional that deals with this sort of stuff. I think I am doing all the right things. If you have any suggestions, I am open to them for sure. We need to have Mizzuno back to being Mizzuno.
Tomorrow, I am going to spend the day with my sister, husband, and mother in law. We will be going to the SPCA to see about adopting a dog for my sister. Sounds good.
Today, I will be making a colage of sorts for my sister. I am not much of an artist but I thought she could use some of my art on her wall. We will see how that goes.
Keep on walking forward is something that I believe to be true. It is also okay to stop and take a break for a spell because sometimes life can throw the biggest piles of **** at you. So, I am sitting down for awhile and breathing. I need a break. The good news is that the river of emotions has subsided and I am coming into a place of acceptance. I am blessed to have the support that I have in my life. I am loved and well cared for. Thank you all for being here.
Thank you for reading this if you made it this far!
