I am home from work and very happy to be here on SR. How cool it is to be sober in the evenings--not picking up alcohol and rushing home to drink it super fast due to a short worknighty window . I had so many evenings of freedom, and am having another. I need more company, too. Not the drinking buddy kind.
Next week I am on vacation and will enjoy it sober. It's a great opportunity to rest and grow. But spend time with more people. I have friends and family, but a lot of landmines in those groups. Need to seek out more people who want to do other things that normally don't include alcohol . Maybe I should go look for birds. Strange birds.
...yeah, I think that might be good 
24 more please. Really grateful. Have a great night or day.

24 more please and Thank You.
A bit of a tough day. I have multiple facets in my work. Expectations are quite high with upper management. I can reach some of those expectations and then some are unrealistic.
This morning, a friend mentioned my Birthday. Asked me if I remember the event. Asked twice if I remember. As if I blacked out. I didn't and yes I do remember. I remember that I was not in control of my words. I remember. Even though it was a good time shame covered me like a blanket today. I couldn't shake it. I was trapped in feeling. The flood gates of emotions opened and I was raw for the remaining of my day.
I remember. I know. I understand that Im an alcoholic. I cannot erase this fact.
I know I am growing. These sudden feelings of shame are bound to come. They only helped to solidify that I no longer have to live in a space of not knowing my words or actions. I choose to remember and be in control of my actions now. It's such a relief. Im free of the cycle of destruction tonight. All we have is this moment to make a different decision.
Have a good night all.
