I believe if you can do two months, you can do two years. Congratulations.

Two months has gone by fast.
I have been busy working. Working a lot! Away from home 15 hours a day. Driving and running heavy equipment. Always alone and isolated. I was drinking daily. Every night and very hard on the weekends for more years than I can remember. 20 plus years I’m guessing. I would buy vodka every day after work, drink quickly on the hyw during my hour plus commute home. Home was cleaning up, cooking something, make some sort of lunch,try to keep the house half ass together,firewood etc. All while drinking till it was gone. Then crash into bed and do it again. I live a lone and interact with very few people so I was never held accountable. There are many days I realize that I don’t even speak a word. The weekends were alway trying to get ready for the next week of work. Waiting for the booze shop to open at 9 am so I could drink before the grocery store. Then drink at home till I passed out in the afternoon. Wake, get more booze, and drink the evening away. It was the weekend so more time to drink! Madness
I am concerned about my upcoming time off. I have 2 months or so off as our Canadian winter turns to spring. I have the urge to drink now with 2days a week off. Soon I will have 2 months off. I worry.

I’m sorry for rambling on. Thank you for listening.

Congrats on 2 months.
don't let it back in is all I can say. Old routines will quickly become normal again. Keep on building that sober life.
