Well, my wife has drank for the for the 638 days I’ve been sober. Every single one of them. We drank together for 36 years. I can’t drink anymore because I can never stop drinking when I get started. She’s harmless and passes out on the couch. It’s sad. And I’m lonely most evenings but I’m learning to be grateful for the time I have with her when she is not drinking. It’s not always easy but this is my sobriety and I don’t miss the merry go round of drinking.
I’ve also learned when I’m focused on my wife’s drinking, I’m not focusing on my sobriety. And I need that reminder all the time. So I pull out this reading that I will leave here with you.
I’m always around here because I get great support. And I start my day on the gratitude thread. It’s my best tool. Daily Gratitude List #3
I’m Always happy to help. This shit is hard.
Feel free to vent on here. It always helps me.
