Everything all good, just need to avoid certain people and places for a while!

Glad you're back, hopscotch!

Nothing wrong with avoiding certain people and situations while you're getting your footing. Heck, I moved out of my house and into a hotel for the first few months of sobriety! That might be an extreme example, but The Point is I did what I had to do to give myself a really good start.

Well done, stay vigilant, though. Cravings will be there - maybe when you least expect them - like when things are going really well.

Found today particularly hard, warm weather and knowing friends where out at the pub. Anyhow, found stuff to occupy my time and will be off to bed soon.
