@RosaCanDo That is exactly the thing to share. We need to know moments of weakness, automation, etc, happen, so if or when they happen to us we are not surprised or feel alone. You did great, I am so happy u are on the sober train still with us all!
Iām so proud of you @RosaCanDo!! We all have those weak moments but itās how we react that makes all the difference. Thatās a huge win for you!
Yeah, they were amazing hands down!
I talked to them today she gave me the rundown I do have to wait till the restrictions on my license are lifted which should be the next week or so
Proud of you for taking action, in the past Iāve had like out of body experiences and Iām suddenly drinking and had no control over buying it. The insanity of the alcoholic mind never ceases to amaze me but your higher power cut in or you basically came to your senses, all the same well done and another day sober
600 reasons to be happy congratulations and well done
As much as I am now a believer in taking action there are times in those early days when if you donāt know what to do then do nothing at all. Sometimes I would want a drink so bad that I wouldnāt even get out of a chair bc I knew if I moved I would drink. Your doing great and your 100% correct it really does get easier, just donāt leave before the miracle happens.
Haha! Michigan is the same
I grew up in Michigan! I can relate, and it is like that here in Northern Iowa, too. One thing Iām grateful for is there is more sun hereā¦Michigan is so damn gray!
Hey family,
If youāre the praying sort, send out one for Kathleen, my mom, this evening. She is in the ER at the moment with some cognitive issues. Not really sure what is going on yet.
Thank you!
So sorry to hear that, u both will be in my thoughts.
So sorry to hear this. Sending healing thoughts.
Day 307. After a terribly anxious night, I woke up this morning and realized that I donāt have to drink if I donāt want to. For a few days, I was really feeling as if I had no say in the matter. I would HAVE to drink while I was away on my trip. But I donāt, damn it! As long as I say no to the first drink, Iāll be fine.
Prayers
Lol it sure can be Gray but itās also so beautiful!
That first one is the only one that matters, you got this
Praying for your Mom, hope sheās okay.
I am sorry u had an anxious night. You have said no to the first drink for more than 300 days (congratulations btw) you can do it on your trip. Think of all the lovely things u can do on ur trip sober, especially those things that would be impossible if drinking (relaxing in the evening and remembering it, enjoying breakfast, etc)
So true. Thereās a reason we spend vacations there! I loved growing up there.
Keeping Kathleen in my prayers.
