Made it through the weekend straight and sober, Phew!!! Moved mom she has alzhiemers. It was the first time I had experianced her not knowing who I am and her being very angry at me for trying to help her. There are just no words to even express how that felt. Yep, there's that word feel (ings). I wanted so bad to escape into never never land where no part of me could feel the pain and sadness. Others were drinking and oh how I wanted to so bad. I am glad my daughter was there to jump in when I froze.
I don't remember who it was here that told me to say, I wont drink today but I will tomorrow. At first I thaught, "If I use that I'd surely drink tomorrow." Well it has deffinately helped. Thank you! |

Congrats on making it through a hard experience sober! *jumps up and down* That's awesome! Keep up the great work you're doing to stay sober, it'll get easier with time. Stay clean, just for today. If today is too overwhelming, stay clean for the night 15 minutes. You can do it!

WTG!!!!!!!!!!!!! Weekends are so hard. Many people in my homegroup when giving out chips will say like, "30 days continuous sobriety, including nights and weekends." Weekends are so hard when you start out! I am so very proud of you!!! You did a great thing this weekend and were a good inspiration for you daughter. I'm sure it felt good for her to be able to help.
*Big pat on the back* Rayna

My first day sober, I couldn't remember the serenity prayer. I called my friend bawling and he told me so I could write it down. I still have that piece of paper. Glad it helped!
