Sunny side

” I don’t know where I’m going but I’m walking on the sunny side of the street!”

my daughter said this to me while she was taking a brisk walk in 4 degree weather! She was in such a good mood!

i told her, that is a great mantra! Whatever we are going through, get on the sunny side of the street. I feel like I am on the sunny side now being sober!!!!!!!!

” I will not have a FUCK IT moment!”

Day 45!!! Woo hoo.

talked to belle on the phone yesterday! So amazing to have a sober mentor.  the top 2 things I left with was, my blog title And Stay in the Moment!

vow to give yourself think time, days, a week, …..before you throw in the towel. Chances are that the reason you were feeling like a drink will have passed. No impulsive fuck ups!!!!!

also, stay in the moment. Don’t worry about wolfie lurking somewhere in hitherto future. Deal with the bustard then!!!!! In the mean time, keep dehydrating the bastard!

” And this too shall pass!”

Day 41!

im finding with everyday that passes, cravings are diminishing and when I get one, it really doesn’t take too long for the urge to pass.

wolfie is not very strong these days! He’s quite dehydrated! Being back to work though after being off for 17 days sure sucks and is fucking stressful-  a recipe in the he past to crack open a bottle of wine soon after work. Making my decaf coffee with flavored cream is my savior and my fresca wit h lime! Back exercising too – wondering why I’m not losing weight? What the fuck?

oh we’ll, I’ve also found that not drinking has made me calmer and more loving toward myself!  And that is an we some feeling!
