Every day is a miracle to me
So last time I was on here I said I had gone to my first AA meeting. Ever since then I have continued with some meetings and even got a sponsor. My life feels really amazing right now and I feel fantastic, I am on day 28 although it feels a lot longer than that for some reason.
Its amazing how much better you feel after not drinking and its not even been a month. I may still be pink clouding it (a word my sponsor used) but I don't care, I feel good. I feel like the veil has been lifted and I am able to really feel and see what is around me. I quit for 10 months in 2013 so I remember this feeling. I don't know why I let it slip through my hands though. Its crazy how I thought having one or two glasses of wine again was going to be okay. and it just sent me on the crazy train for 2 years until I finally said enough!
So here I am again taking it one day at a time. The difference this time is I am not going to isolate myself. I have met another woman from AA and we have become friends (not my sponsor).
My sponsor is an amazing woman, it may sound weird but I think she was meant to come into my life, we have so many similarities, its eery. I feel like I am really open now to all the miracles that the universe has to offer. I know that sounds crazy but that is truly how I feel. I just feel more aware and truly present and that is a gift.
thank you for listening.

Great post. That sounds like me. I relapsed after 10.5 months. I'd started isolating and didn't use the support that was offered. I quit by making up my mind, signing up here and using the site, going to AA meetings and making several women friends in the program. It really sounds like you're on the right track. Keep going and we'll done on 28 days. That's great.
