checking in. from Wayside … the treatment center staying here again tonight. Had a really good day. Had one on one counselling this morning for the first time in a while. Really helped. Some of today was frustrating and stressful. Tears and what not but very much growth provoking. Tomorrow the house manager is back so that will be productive I hope. Some of my housemates are surprised that I am not coming home but you want to lie to my face about things I saw you do i stay away until I calm down and get some support which I have lined up for tomorrow.

@Charlie_C Happy Birthday it’s always nice to read your posts and see the pics of your grandson.
God bless you all. :v:& :heart:

P.s. You are so sweet. Ya you!!

Checking in on Day 73 without alcohol! Had a surprisingly good Monday. Nice to start the week by getting a lot accomplished with a chance to end the work day early with some yoga, cleaning, and relaxing.

Day 182
Hubby is off, and we had breakfast out and pottered around shops. He was waxing lyrical about how I will soon be 40 and must be careful about my health (his mum had a stroke at 48). I said I am pretty careful, go jogging 2 or 3 times a week, and dropped the hint “and I haven’t drunk alcohol for 6 months”. Did he pick it up? Did he bollocks.

Day 361~ Checking in. Life is funny how it works. You are constantly being tested and constantly challenged. It’s like you think you know and bam it’s the complete opposite. The difference now is I’m able to actual work through these obstacles and not run from them.

Work has been stressful with management really cracking down. Lots of almost unnecessary pressure if you ask me. Also no one likes a kiss ass. Ughh I suppose every work place has one. :woman_facepalming:t3: :roll_eyes: Our ice cream shop has been booming which is excellent considering it’s February in Massachusetts. The community has really supported us and seems to be a perfect fit for our city. I know we are so blessed given the current state of the world right now. I’m beyond thankful. :pray:t3: It’s crazy how a year ago I was thinking there is no way this dream would come true. And here I am. Hard work and dedication pays off. The local paper did an article on our shop and the family. It was a nice little write up. If I was drinking none of this would be happening.

Change is possible. It’s never too late to break the cycle. Every journey has a day 1. Stay positive. Stay strong.
