Morning sober sprouts. Well well well. The first superdooper spring like day in my neck of the woods. The media monster rolls out the news spouting such lines as "The beast from the East returneth!" (and we wont have enough gas supplies and we will all perish) but No! Its glorious. So fine peeps of the sober new order....i shall throw my cards on the table for another 24 big cahoonas.

I am in for 24, and feeling really good this morning. Got up and did some yoga and meditation, had a good breakfast.
One month now since I had a hangover so bad that I checked into a hotel because I couldn't face my flatmate in that condition. Dreadful.
This last month has not been hard, mainly because this time I have stuck closer to the boards, and worked to keep my sobriety solid each and every day - reading sobriety books, watching Youtube videos, listening to Annie Grace's brilliant Naked Mind podcasts. So things are feeling good, and that's exactly why I'm now gonna work to lock my sobriety down even more now, as I know that the further I get from the last time I drank, the less I remember the full horror of what alcohol has been to me.
I'm rambling a bit, but just now, listening to Spotify, a song came on - Something in the Air by Thunderclap Newman. It almost made me tear up, as it was a song I used to love back when I was 16-17. It took me right back to that time when I was just goofy and happy, when alcohol wasn't part of my life. What's been nice over the past week or so, is getting little glimmers of that young pre-alcohol me. It's like he's actually always been there, but was just drowned out by all that booze and drugs. The prospect of reconnecting with that earlier part of myself is one of my biggest motivations in sobriety.
Anyway, I'm now gonna order myself a DVD box set as a 1 month reward, then it's off to work ;-)
Love to all. Thanks for the stellar support.
Congrats to the wonderful milestoners!
And beaming strength to anyone having a less than brilliant time.
thanks

Good morning gang!
Today we are off......gulp......PROM DRESS SHOPPING AGAIN!!
I feel alive and ready! Beef casserole in the slow cooker and just putting my face on. Huge coffee on the go too of course!
Things are slightly hectic but great. I now have a timetable of the next 10 days between now and the girls going away with their dad. Yes THAT busy!
Okay so let's get some slap on and my comfy shoes. Shopping here I come!

thanksI’d definitely be rewarding myself too.. I often treat myself by getting my nails done more regularly or spray tan(prob not the rewards you would have in mind though lol!!) Another great thing for me was the iPhone app QUIT THAT. It’s shows you how much money you’ve saved.. I don’t know where that money goes though
I love the motivational podcasts or audiobooks, especially when I’m walking.. I’m currently listening to “The miracle morning” by Hal Elrod- it’s fantastic..

Good evening everyone- well I survived Jordan’s party!! He has a sore head which makes me a little bit happy
It’s been a busy day of cleaning. The house and back yard looked like nothing I’ve ever seen before.. bottles and rubbish, pizza boxes, yuck!!! - it’s taken me all day to clear up and clean all my floors again!!
I’m grateful for the distraction it’s brought me though..
I hope that everyone else is travelling well-
Sending loads of love to all
