Baby Steps Update

Life in Recovery
1

For those that know me, me and my wife are trying to work on our marriage. For those that don’t, Hi my name is Danny and I’m a 31 year old alcoholic with 3 kids who has been separated with his wife for a month due to the fact I am a terrible person when I drink.

Day 32 now and things are kinda starting to fall into place. Still haven’t had a drink and me and my wife are trying to work things out. We are not officially back together, but we have currently moved back in with one another. for now. We are moving 2 hours away from where we live now. For 4 days out of the week ill be staying at my brothers house to both give us that needed space and to stay close to my job. This will prob remain for the rest of the year in hopes to create a stronger future for me and my wife.

I want to thank everyone who has given me support in these hard time. Without the words of many, I probably would have already picked up a drink.
