Checking in at 17 days sober.
Yesterday ended up being a bit of a toughy. Friends have been staying with us for a few nights. They are all drinking, and Iām not. They have not applied an ounce of pressure on me to join in, which I am so grateful for. Iāve been thoroughly enjoying the freedom that choosing no brings, and embracing the role of the breakfast-maker in the mornings. However, last night didnāt feel like freedom. A voice in my head kept telling me I had done so well this week, and for my good behaviour, I deserved one little night of alcohol-infused fun. While I fought to silence this voice, I could feel myself growing a bit grumpy and resentful, so I said my good-nights, and went to bed early.
I certainly donāt feel the same way today. I am very proud for not giving in. I wish the temptation could have passed without souring my mood. It was a missed opportunity to have a nice night with friends after Covid kept us apart for so long. But it is what it is. I will take the lesson, and hopefully tonight will be better!

Day 377
Words cannot describe how grateful I am to be starting my week off today. Work week was so exhausting.
Woke up at 7 am today to do my workout, walked out to the garden instead, and came right back in to go back to bed. Yawning so much I was crying. So fucking tired.

On this day on or about 8:00am I was at NAS Alameda starting a 21 day out patient program that changed my life forever and saved my military career. That first day is when I attended my first AA meeting. 90 meeting in 90 days. A game changer. About halfway through week 2 I saw the light and understood my choices of to drink or not to drink. Probable consequences if I continued to drink which were scary once I wrote it all down on paper which I still carry today.

Havenāt had a PAWS episode in quite a while. It definitely stopped or became so mild I donāt attribute it to that after a year or less. Seemed each episode got milder as time went on. Definitely wasnāt a day to day thing, just a random one to three day occurrence every now and then.
