Today I am Grateful For...Part 9
^ TIAGF this place.. all you guys and gals who take the time to share your Journey.. a SHORT work week! (thanks PresentTense!) and last and not Least i am very Grateful to still be sober as i trudge toward 6 and a Half years!
TIAGF:
Grateful to all of you. So much.
Grateful I have some marbles left cause I started noticing liquor stores and bars everywhere around me tonite when i was out shopping. I never even notice them anymore. I actually thought, EQ if you went in there you'd drink. Which is why I'm not in there! Lol
Grateful to talk to myself and say:
"EQ, you are: very hungry, feeling increasingly angry, quite lonely and extremely tired. Go home and work on those things...".

That I accept part of me will always want to drink, but that it is a terrible idea, and the end result will be the same.
That I am glad to move on and have found life is so much better without alcohol in my life

Catching myself in my head when I start exagerating or feeling self pity, and stopping myself and replacing it with a rational view.
(Okay not all the time but a lot more times then ever. I don't want to exagrerate! Lol)

The capacity to make a plan for myself, follow it, take stock, reassess, and amend the plan as needed.
I thought all that stuff was hogwash when I drank. And yet I planned to drink everyday!
