Accountability..well good thing I am completely sober and clear headed because I am here in with my Mom in the ER. She had a fall last night and now can't stand or walk. If I had been drinking my thought process would be completely off and I know I would not be that calm person I am when I don't drink. Another reason why not to drink. I need to be be ready for anything.

Accountability: Doing well with my focus and sobriety drive, too many things going on to even think about it, it is so far off my radar which is good. There is a lot of stress around me right now with issues between Mr. A and myself, my Mom, dealing with my MIL, and closing on a house soon. When I drank the simplest situations often seemed so large and insurmountable where I would get frustrated quite easily. I am normally a very calm person that does not get phased by much and often impressed people with my calmness and even keeled person during difficult situations .I need to maintain this lifestyle.
Toolbox: Take deep breaths
Focus on something positive

I will find my way no matter how slippery the surface is.

Second accountability: We had to go to some little function our relator was having for his clients and there was an open bar. I did not even have to think about it, I just walked up and asked for a soda, no av at all. Woot woot. Alpine 1, av a big ole 0. Take that av.

Woot woot indeed! :). Sending you hugs! :hug:

Accountabiliy: No drinks for this Alpine and I do not miss it all and have no room in my life for it. I went to visit my Mom today and she is doing as well as to be expected. She looks so darn frail and has increased confusion which I am not surprised about. I don't need that "escape" it serves no purpose. I need real authentic memories.

Accountability: Keeping the focus and drive alive for my sobriety because it IS the only way to be and to enjoy life and to handle life's speed bumps. Drinking ruins everything around me and the people and of course Riley pup and is a very selfish thing to do. I have never been selfish and the more I think about it it was highly selfish for me and completely changed who I was.
Toolbox: Read inspirational quotes
Be in the now

Make the most of everyday. Mr A and I went on a hike/camping trip for our anniversary. He took me to the beach.
