138 days AF. I’m feeling scared at the thought of drinking again. Like atm I barely think about it and feel confident in social settings but it does cross my mind when I hear other people struggling with it.
One day and one moment at a time hey

Day 29
We’ll day 29 no urges to drink , things got more complicated the S/O wants to move 200 miles away to go live with her family. Says she has no intentions of getting back together… so now I have to file for 50:50 custody which she said she would sign… just makes it difficult for when the child is born because she will be so far away and she expects me to drive there for everything if I want to see the kid… feel like she’s ripping everything away from me, pretty sad I won’t be able to be there for all the little moments and all the firsts for the baby when it’s in its newborn stage … really sad about all that… a lot of things I have to figure out… we’ll here’s to 29 days sober

Day 109 here which I’m pleased with but there have been other significant milestones or dates for me that I’ve reached too. Today marks the day, three years ago that I decided to reach out and get help for my drinking.
I had already tapered down and had a full week of no booze but this was the first time I ever went to a specific addiction service. I remember vividly, feeling so together on the bus ride in to the drop in clinic and then the floods of tears of relief that seemed to come from nowhere once I had actually spoken to the assessment woman. It’s really the best thing I ever did for myself and my family.
Also, this day three years ago I put up the first day of school pictures on Facebook and realised my parents didn’t respond to them, or call. I called them to find out they had gone on a trip to Ireland without letting me know. It galls me to this day.
Anyway, the morning went well and both kids were happy to be back at school and looking smart. I’m so proud of them both.
I’ll be making a carrot cake in time for them getting in from school.

I won’t recommend you moderate drinking. A lot of authors, and also my, opinion is, that it is easier to don’t drink at all and that relapsing is quite sure.
I ate Skyr for the first time 3 days ago and I think it’s a nice substitute for yoghurt.

Day 735? On the computer so can’t check day count
Had to go to work to pick up some papers I needed to finish grading. So great my kids are old enough to be left alone for an hour or two. Finished one uni’s grading (the place where I have more classes) an hour and a half before the deadline. Well, on time is on time right?
For some reason, my daughter wanted to watch the Addams family movies the last couple of nights, so that was a trip down memory lane. Now I can breathe a little work-wise I am starting watching the last season of Killing Eve. It has gone off the boil a little but I want to know what happens.
Eating healthily and exercise are not going so well. My husband commented my ankles are even more swollen than usual (they are chronically swollen anyway) and nagged a little about my diet and exercise. Last time I had a blood check there was slightly higher creatinine levels which can be caused by lower kidney function, and since then he has been extra naggy. It may be a sign of love and care, but it can be annoying.

I had to chuckle at this because he sounds like my husband, too. I know it comes from a place of love and concern but I don’t think it helps! I tell him that and he says, “well, how can I help?” And I have no answer. Sigh! It’s just a daily issue to tackle as an individual, for me, anyway.
