In a GOOD place...

Know it's gonna be short lived, but right now, day 5, I'm ok. As I explained in my previous posts, I was TERRIFIED of today. But, I slept in, got up 20 minutes before I had to get Hubs up for work. Made him breakfast. All while having the horrible cravings and fighting with that AV in my head. But, once he left at 5:30, I promptly got dressed and took my pup on a walk. That was a Godsend. I felt so good when I got home, and so did my dog. I ate some PB&J toast, took my pills, the got on here. I have always been a morning drinker...hammered by 9 am, so mornings are my worst. Even when I was actively drinking, if I got past about 11 am without drinking, I wasn't drinking that day. So, staying busy this morning. Wanted to post here, then gonna clean up the house a little (Lord knows it needs it BAD!)...just gonna take cues from my body...stop and rest when I need to, nap if I need to, eat a little if I need to. Thing is, I REALLY feel in my soul that this is it for me...I'm not gonna fail. And that makes me happy! So, for today, I will be sober. Tomorrow is tomorrow and will worry about it then. Have a gread sober day y'all!

Sounds like you're feeling good. It'll get even better.

Thank you! I DO feel good, but am smart enough not to get cocky....it could and probably will change on a dime, but in a much better place to be able to deal....

You will have so much more time sober. Dog and you will get fit and house spotless, or at least much much better--mine is

great job! I know you shared that day 4 was rough!

What do you have planned today? I'm asking a bit redundantly since you mentioned a few to dos. This one day is what matters. Practical had to be my focus early on (and I'd say early meant months not days). You can do this.
