Checking in, day 43.

Woke up with a new sense of determination and feeling optimistic. Idk if the meetings or my program are starting to finally stick but I feel fearless and ready to take on anything. Even my only remaining fear.
I have made up my mind.
I will do my best.

Iā€™m just sorry itā€™s taken me this long to even consider it.
Iā€™m just fucking sorry for being so sorry all of the time.

Yes thatā€™s a good idea. I feel good every weekend I go through sober. I donā€™t have any problems getting intoxicated during the week: my problem is really the weekends: so every one I go through sober, I feel great. I guess the impatience comes from never getting to 100 days, I tried a few times and the most I did was around 60days. But every time I learn something new and feel better equipped for the next challenge. And anyway: getting intoxicated is not much of an option for me anymore because I get super paranoid and psychotic if I do drugs, and, get a migraine and sleepy with alcohol. I feel like my mind, body and soul has had more than enough and itā€™s just not accenting it anymore so it reacts to these substances in the worst way possible, so itā€™s just kinda happening naturally where I donā€™t feel obligated to do this but more like itā€™s how I truly feel. Thanks for the tips :100:

Working on another trip to Texas. Back home to Austin.
Got the pets stuff all pack today. So we donā€™t stress them out when we take them to the Kennel :cry: again tomorrow. Itā€™s helped a little that we just did this a couple of weeks ago. But they are still not gonna like it. And neither am I. Then we donā€™t leave until Thursday.
First time in Austin, where I considered my home, sober. Iā€™m confidently looking forward to the challenge. Iā€™m really not too worried about drinking. Because I donā€™t do that shit anymore. And I think Iā€™ll just have fun without my booze. And get thisā€¦ I wonā€™t be hungover. Not even once :+1:
I got this. And I got yā€™all in my pocket.
Thanks yā€™all for helping me get to where I am today. These are the firsts I really look forward to.
:pray::heart:

We donā€™t have to live like that anymore!

Day 466
I dumped a liter of vodka down the drain yesterday! It gave me goosebumps. I feel like when we do something like that we are telling the world ā€œAlcohol will never fucking win again!ā€ Fuck NO! Mwahaha. It was a gift that had been staring at me from my pantry for a few weeks now. Glad itā€™s gone. I also told my fiancĆ© to get his fireball crap out of here. NO MORE ALCOHOL IN MY HOUSE! OMGā€¦ we even got shots in these adult Halloween goodie bags! Anyway, I took care of the problem. I didnā€™t even realize it was a problem but I would literally think about that damn alcohol more than Iā€™d like to admit. Just done thinking about it. Done playing the tape forward. Setting my boundaries. Maybe changing the course of history. Who knows!?

Congrats on the 22 months and for being so strong in your sobriety! You learned you didnā€™t ā€œgive upā€ anything but a hard timeā€¦ the drinking to start with and the hangovers to end with and everything and anything surrounding itā€¦ " We donā€™t have to live like that anymore" and do not even WANT to! Super proud of you! Have a great trip and enjoy your hometown and your friends.
