Good morning everyone, it’s going to be another warm (about 31°C) day here in N.Italy…
Even though my house is for sale and I’m hoping that it will sell soon, it’s still nice to be home.
Quiet weekend over here… and time for me to get to work.
I hope that you have all had a good and sober weekend.

Morning. Today its back to work after 3 weeks vacation. I do not feel rested or filled with energy and ready to get back. I feel more tired and drained then before I started my 3 weeks off. Ohh, just have to get to it, got no choice. At least I did not drink anything during my vacation so no hangover or alcoholanxeity.

Day 295 AF
Went to a pizza spot with some old friends. Everyone was drinking cept for me. I didn’t get the urge to drink. Didn’t feel anything really. It was cool hanging out and catching up. You can still chill without boozin. I got complimented on my weight, so that’s a plus. I thought about the relapse dreams that I had in the past. How bummed out I felt for drinking in the dream. But they actually helped me. Knowing that I am in control. Don’t gotta worry about relapsing. It feels pretty damn good, honestly. I’m gonna make it, fam.
It’s back to the grind tomorrow. ODAAT.
Goodnite yall! Much love.

Day 103 Af.
Last night of work for the week and holy he’ll am I glad. Really feeling the like the dog days of summer, especially working at a bar. It’s like groundhogs day. However the money is good so I’m riding it out… On a more positive note I’m starting assistant coaching soccer with the local varsity team in town tomorrow morning. I’m thankful for this opportunity and ready to share my knowledge and get back working with kids. Wouldn’t have been able to do this if I was still drinking. Life is getting better, more positive things coming in the future. Good night all, keep at it!

Hey Dana,
Well done on getting through another day. Last minute changes are a real barrier to overcome especially when your work was harder than it was meant to be. You overcame the challenge and made it through.
You had obviously been chosen because someone somewhere knew you were capable of getting through it, where others may have faltered.
Enjoy your evening, smile, relax and be happy knowing you made it through another challenge and grew because of it!
Love seeing you grow!

Day 254
Today is going to be a good day, I can feel it in my bones. Woken up feeling really positive. Glad to be home and out of hospital. Been told to take it easy but I don’t do easy. I’m going to make sure I don’t do anything stupid but I have lost nearly 3 weeks of my life and I’m not going to miss another day.
Thankful I’m here. Thankful I can participate and positive about the change I will make to myself today!
Being broken is not a bad thing, it allows you to rebuild yourself piece by piece!
Have a good day everyone! A helping hand is here if you need me!

Because there isn’t.
Let it go.
I understand how you feel 
But I got a whole lot of peace when I let go the thought of moderate drinking.
I was 5 years sober and there it was again. Can I drink moderate? I thought I was cured after such a long time.
The answer was: I wasn’t. For me it’s still “one is not enough”. I learned the hard way.
It’s like turning of your radio with the volume high. When you turn it on the volume is still high. You are right back where you left it.
Another quote that is a very true one for me is:
Because of the amound I have drank I became a pickle, that’s why I can drink moderate. The cucumbers can…untill they cross that same line as we did and become a pickle.

#Day 1419 
1 week of work to go before my holiday. But today I’m off from work. Going to walk, getting groceries and doing the house chores. Nothing special but that’s fine too. Not every day has to be special. Sometimes a normal ore even a boring day are better days then a special one.
Like waking up with a black out and a hangover is a special one 
Glad that special ones are history!
Found a special clover yesterday, a 5 leaf clover
It just caught my eye when I walked by.
