Better Day!

Got through a terrible day yesterday, while admittedly considering it, with no beer or wine.
Today, day 26 has been a breeze. I woke up after a stormy night in a tent feeling great once I actually got up.
I will admit texting back and forth with GF that I mutually broke things off with yesterday has made my mindset a lot better (I have less willpower with her than with beer when it comes to breaking contact ... But I think it goes both ways), as well as even some positive encouragement from her.
For whatever reason but today was a piece of cake and right now, while uncertain of what the future holds, I am sitting by a campfire with my two sons on a gorgeous Ohio night feeling OK about things.

Glad today is better!
One day at a time is all we can ask for! We have no control over the future and if you stay sober things will just continue to progress and get better!
