Day 60

60 days.... wow! It seems like yesterday yet in another sense it seems like so long ago that I was a complete slave to alcohol. It hasn't been an easy road, but it has been worth it.

There have been so many changes in my life during this short time. I am learning how to deal with major change sober. That also means not crawling in a hole and covering my head. That is where my alcoholism started. I had a major life event, tried to hide from life and eventually started drinking.

This change is physically tiring and mentally exhausting. I've been strong and haven't drank. There have been times (even today) where I thought how easy it would be just to have a few drinks. Just to have that evening of no worry. It doesn't take long for me to remember where I came from. I do NOT want to go back there.

Life is a journey. Ups and downs are part of it. Learning to cope and maneuver life without alcohol can be challenging. For me, I know it is worth it.

Thank you my SR friends for helping along the way!

It is a series of ups and downs but it is worth it living life, sober. Well done on 60 days! That's great.
