Day 78

Doing okay over here- had a strange day yesterday with zero energy and some over eating but I'm not beating myself up about it as I am definitely pmsing over here.

I survived another day at the pool on Sunday- surrounded but adults drinking and listening to live music. I can point out the problem drinkers now and it just makes me sad to think I was one of them- you know the ones who take their drinks into the pool because god forbid they are without it for a minute. Ugh. I am so relieved that will never be me again but I also feel guilty when I think about all the drinking I have done, especially around my children. Luckily they will never have to see my drunk again and hopefully at their ages they won't have memories of me being so.

Maybe I'm just in a funk today, who knows.
I am grateful for these last 77 days of sobriety and begging for another 24. I will never go back to that hell again- never, ever ever...

Starting my workbook/book on binge eating today. There is a lot of soul searching/writing involved and I am a bit nervous but hopeful at the same time. This is one of the only addictions I have left to kick (social media will be the last.)

Hope everyone has a great day and congrats to those celebrating milestones today!

Eeek, overslept again :-( But that's not going to ruin my Day 30! Praying for sobriety and peace of mind for the next 24 hours.

“Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don’t. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.”


5:55am in Alberta, it's going to be a darn good day not to drink!

24 more for me please, and thanks...

SFL- I find writing about stuff- very hard work, but definitely worth it.
