Second check in today Day 100 but want to report that dinner with family went ok (had sparkling water not wine) and left casino when up $83.25 (oh and declined a drink from the roving waitress).

Feels great! Although I did have a couple thoughts during the evening about things would be more fun if I was drinking, I Love being sober so much!

951 twenty-four hour sauceless blocks of time on the planet earth.

It had been a habit of his mind to disregard tomorrow. It was engendered partly by an existence of excitement, adventure, and wild warfare. But mostly it was a matter of principle. It did not resemble the carelessness of a condottiere, it was a puritanism of conduct, born of stern enthusiasm like the puritanism of religion.

One day at a time!!!

  1. Coffee. Skipped the spinning class yesterday, going for another one in an hour’s time. Slept pretty well. Needed that. I was out of bed just in time to catch daybreak. Going to think of some useful stuff to do today while spinning. I am sure it won’t involve stupid drinking or drugging. Never again, one day at a time. Have as good a day as you all can friends. Being sober and clean helps with that. Lots. Love from my place.

Start of day 16. I woke up refreshed at 4 am, excited to start my Saturday extra early. I really enjoy the early mornings with a clear head. Oh my goodness. The husband thinks I’m crazy to get up this early. I’m checking in here, then off to my comfy chair with my coffee and library books. Have a safe and happy day!
