Thank you. It is slightly better today. And this is reassuring that he is in hospital with doctors all around.

Day 28 - 4 weeks, big deal. That’s the way I feel.
I’ve started to work in the office this week instead of from home. Work has always been what makes me want to go out after and have a bottle of wine at the resto and talk with the ladies. Today that urge is a bit stronger. I’m questioning whether or not I really want to not ever have wine again.
Then I remembered to look at my astro chart and the general one for next few days. Lo and behold there it is. That Pisces Neptune escapist shit. Jupiter, the planet of excess.
So I’ll go home and behave.

Checking in
Moved from the ER to an actual inpatient room now. Wasn’t expecting it and pleasantly surprised. No more loud noises and shared bathrooms. Insurance was approved as well today from this trip to the hospital. About to be starting a heavy dose of IV antibiotics and IV steroids in the next hour or so… In between sleeping and doctors/nurses checking in I’ve been able to focus on my A.A. reading out of the big book and I think with the quieter room now get back to my journal. I have plenty on my mind with things coming up, my present in the hospital and some time from my relapse to reflect with better awareness.

Checking In: 28 (Keto 7). Going to give Keto another week… My stomach and I miss veggies. It has however handled my intense sugar cravings, so I am thankful for that 
Applied for a supplemental position today and I already have an interview scheduled next week. I don’t wanna, but I financially need to. Thankful/grateful for the ability to work and work more as needed, but… its work. Boo/yay

Nice to see you here. Hope you are well!
Thanks @SassyRocks.
I am doing quite well. My life is in great order but I miss my Dad today because it would have been his birthday. It’s just a huge grief still that alcohol and cigarettes took him 10 to 15 years too soon.
Hope more families of Talking Sober people can avoid this pain.

Day 3. This was one of the most productive work days I’ve had. Nine conference calls. Very tired but been stressed about some work stuff. I checked in twice during the workday here. Thank you all.

Ok, so since my month count was throwing people off, I’m back to days 
I know I’ve been moody lately, but alcohol is far from my mind. 11 months ago tonight I was having my last drink, as I cried into my beer starting to feel afraid of and for myself, and a PTSD reaction that made me think “I shouldn’t be drinking right now - it’s not safe for me”. And here I am!

- Doing well, but changes to my medications are making today difficult. I suspect the worst of the side effects will ease up in the coming weeks. Far from my first time at this rodeo. Hope it works out.
