270 Days unlocked booyah

I unlocked the 9 months sober milestone. Even when I was pregnant I allowed myself a sip here and there, so this is the longest time I’ve gone. I remember when I was on Day 4 and this milestone seemed so far away. I remember having to reset at 4 months and feeling renewed determination to get to one year the second time around. I have actually enjoyed the journey, realizing that I can “do” life without that crutch. Funny though, I just had a nap and had my first “drinking dream” in a long time. I didn’t drink in it, but did think “no one would know,” and really wanted a white wine something fierce. I know one does not simply “get over” it, but what I’ve learned about coping in the last 9 months will help me get on with it. I’ve gotten through my mom’s death sober. Pretty proud about that, as Lord knows it would have been nice to have felt that a little less. See you at One Year, 2019. sobriety #personalgoal sobriety recovery @trewrussellbrand #russellbrand #resolution #newyear #sobertime
