Thank God it's Sober Friday. Woohooooo!
Full day. Felt good to be back doing what I do after yesterday and the pressure of the anticipation leading up to it.
8 weeks. Yay.
Next week's plan:
1. Initiate outpatient treatment search.
2. Sign new lease.
3. Attend at least 1 if I can 2 AA meetings in my soon to be new home town.
AV knocked about hard today. Not anything immediate. But visions of me getting through the stuff I gotta get through in the coming months and the very day I am free again walking into a bar and partying down. Or another vision of taking a trip to a resort in Mexico and partying down.
Damn AV even used the voice "it's ok if you drink again when this is all over, just make sure you don't drive. Problem solved."
Ugh.
What scared me was how very real I recognized the scenario could be. Right now I still have plenty of wreckage laying around to disgust me at the thought of drinking. But I know there's going to come a day that I've come a long way cleaning up that wreckage.
What's my plan then? Gotta start working on that now.
Happy weekend fellow sober folk. Spring has finally sprung. Kitchen windows are open. Fresh air. House is quiet. Good food in the fridge. I'm very grateful.
