Checking in before bed. 24 hours please.
Was in the gas station staring at the alcohol and was convinced I was walking out with some tonight. I feel like I'm getting weaker, not stronger, as time passes. I didn't want to be sober tonight. I didn't even care about the feelings of the past or future. I walked out empty handed and not exactly sure how.
I don't think I've fully accepted a lifetime of sobriety yet. I know I haven't. I still want my best friend in my life to be good to me and not bad. In filling my head with scenarios that logically I know aren't realistic.
Good night friends, here's to another sober sleep.

Something equally as vivid to me now is how much I treasure my sobriety and absolutely see it as a gift rather than a deprivation. That shift, however, did take a little time.
Your sober 'muscles' got a great workout. What an accomplishment to push through that challenge! When you first wake today, in the still of the morning, you'll have no regret and can quietly smile to yourself.
"Every single day is an opportunity for you to start anew; I call this my '24-hour Reset Button.' Each new day stands alone and brings you another chance to move closer towards your goals, so make each day a Great Day!"
6:05am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!
24 more please, and thanks....
Huge congrats CK!
