Day13: Still Sober

And feeling good. Went out last night and didn't drink but had a dream that I did. Weird. Losing weight too!

Thanks. I think it helped that no one at my table was drinking wine.

Well, give yourself credit - you could have still drank, but you didn't.

Those drinking dreams are common in early days, it was a big part of who we are. Makes sense. I haven't had a drinking dream since the first couple months of sobriety.

Tomorrow will be a week. This weekend I'm still struggling with what to do with my time. I get bored so easily. I can't think of anything that will keep my attention for longer than 15 minutes. Ideas?

Hi Secretchord, congratulations on your sober time!

I love to scrapbook but sometimes I just can't focus. I recently bought an adult colouring book and I have found an almost meditative aspect to colouring.

And time slips by unnoticed
