Day 60!!!! Two days away from my 2 month anniversary!
First (ok, second
) Congratulations to:
auxilio ~ 2 weeks! ♥
lyddie ~ 2 weeks! ♥
Purplrks3647 ~ 2 weeks! ♥
zeppodog ~ 4 weeks! ♥
Great job!
Praying for 24 hours of sobriety and patience today as they (who shall remain nameless) attempt the 4th try at delivering my refrigerator. I can't get it hooked up until August 30th (not happy at all) but at least, it will be in my house....hopefully.
Back to work!
August 17 @ 8:01am

“Every difficulty in life presents us with an opportunity to turn inward and to invoke our own submerged inner resources. The trials we endure can and should introduce us to our strengths.”
6:15am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
I'm in for another 24 please, and thanks...

Good morning beautiful people, I'm ALL in.
Congratulations to everyone celebrating a Milestone!!
Before the busy day starts, I'm enjoying a nice cup of tea (no milk in my peaceful garden. It needs weeding!
It's just like my sobriety, I treasure it but it always needs tending.
Hugs, peace, strength and love to all....xxxx

I think i finally understood that willpower and knowing my triggers is not enough. There has to be real change and things can never go back "to the way they were" I have been trying to beat this crazy thing on willpower and trying to avoid my triggers but its never going to work.
Real change is only going to work. But how do i go about finding it, grasping it, ensuring it. Is it time to work the AA steps.... I've always avoided that like the plague - but maybe i need to look into the spiritual side ?

I attend the occasional AA/Alanon/ACA meeting and read the Big Book but so far I haven't worked the steps with a sponsor. However, over the last 19 months I've walked & biked hundreds of miles while listening to different AA & Alanon & Adult Children of Alcoholics (ACA) speakers. I'm so grateful for those who put themselves out there and share their experience, strength and hope. The speakers are free - just google AA speakers.
Good luck with whatever you choose to do!
-That's not all I've done to achieve sobriety and recovery, but that's the AA piece.
