Just wanted to say hi
 
Hi SR family

I just wanted to say hi, I have not visited here as much as I should have done in the last few months.

Still not drinking.
I can't say life is perfect, I have had a few upsets recently - ill family members, a job not working out.

I have this thing that I do.

'Thing' is the only way I can describe it!!!

If something goes wrong or upsets me I think to myself - shall I drink over this? I could do.
I have good reason to.
No-one would know right?

But then I think about what or who has upset me.

Then I think that job/person will not push me towards drinking.

They/it are not worth it.

I cannot let them/it think it has the power or the importance to make me do that.
So I don't - I move on.
Bit like taking a giant step over the problem and walking away from it.

Not sure I have made myself very clear but hopefully you can visualise.

Anyway - I hope you are all well and I miss you and I still love Dee dearly and I will try come and post more.

Love always Sasha xxxx

Hi Sasha, so great to hear from you! I'm sorry you have stressful things going on at present. Good post, as always. Nothing, nor no one should jeopardize our hard won sobriety. Hope you visit more often. Your posts helped me greatly in the early days.
