Pretty good victory yesterday
Usually around 2:30 pm on a Friday I fail my sobriety. Yesterday I made it home without picking up a bottle.
Pretty minor on the outside, but I have this thought and when it hits me a certain way I have never been able to not pick up.
Yesterday was the first time I've ever not drink when I had this thought.
It's tough to explain it, but it's kind of like "oh it's one night, you won't have to detox tomorrow." But I do. Every time I say that I have to detox again. So that makes me proud that I succeeded.

Every journey starts with the first step. One step plus another step is two steps, two more steps after that, then a few more steps, eventually, this is how marathons are completed. You're changing the balance on the scale; momentum is in your favor.
Keep up the good work now!
