Ooh yes Pebbles I think a group UK toast at 9pm is a great idea! I think cranberry and soda for me!
Have a great day mate!

Ruminating and suffering over mistreatment or ugliness is a habit I developed while drinking. I felt powerless to deal with it and withdrew. I caught myself replaying something the moment I woke up--agonizing....
Then, I was like...wait!!. I can be free of those types of thoughts. It isn't easy, but when I was drinking it was impossible! I am becoming aware of my thoughts and can question them. How could I look at that situation differently? How could I deflate this? I love how sobriety makes this possible. I don't have to be victimized any more...not by anyone else and not by my own thoughts and habits.
I am starting my day over with gratitude and love. So happy to be here with you and be free of that nasty, sad poison. Such a long way to go in my recovery but it's happening. The feeling of freedom and the ability to truly love others is amazing.
Have a wonderful day, and congratulations again to Nick and Suze!
Love
Red
