Still sober one day at a time. No matter what else happens, at least I am sober.

Every time I think of smoking I want a cigarette. It's been since March, darn it with a bunch of cigarettes since then here and there. Only one or two in a day though. But it's been about 3 weeks now or more since the last one. I mustn't smoke it's deadly for me.

I enjoyed my 21 x 2 + 6 birthday. Thank Goddess I am back to even numbers Celebrated with cheesecake and fresh strawberries Now that I think of it, I celebrated my 21st free of ALL substances (except nicotine & caffeine) in a half way house with Lobstah races. My Lobstah won and for that I ate him

21 days sober today. I mentioned to hubby last night that it was 20 days. He said "congrats". Phhtt. But then he asked if it is getting any easier, to which I was able to reply that indeed it was. That I don't think about it all the time now.

Went to my regular Monday AA meeting that I chair. It was a great one and made me think about going to more meetings each week. But, one is enuf for me. Not crazy about all the social interaction.

Saw something on FB about addiction. It goes like this:
"I would rather go through life clean believing I'm an addict, than go through life using trying to convince myself I'm not." I agree.

I like that quote very much. It resonates well with me right now.
I am going to my first social event outside of home tonight since I stopped drinking almost a month ago. I know I'll be fine. But I also know I'll miss not getting a buzz and loosening up. I tend do be very quiet sober. That's okay though. Rather quiet than drunk and trying to hide it and then embarrassing my husband and son.

I sailed through. I just got hungry! Normally I wouldn't eat supper that we BBQ'd. Hubby was super affectionate and without me asking, brought me a dry lemon drink with ice which made me feel important, and it was really tasty too. We got home very late so I only took my meds then but was able to fall asleep and have a lie in on Sunday too.
The way I am feeling now? I doubt I will ever drink again. I really feel free.

It is a gorgeous Saturday evening. We are days away from Spring. The "ambiance" made me think about enjoying the evening with a drink. I thought about it a lot. So I went and bought some strawberry flavoured mineral water. Just more than a month sober. No way I will drink now. That's what I keep telling myself.

well this is my sixth day clean off of cocaine, alcohol, and amphetamines! um, i'm still using marijuana and pills fairly regularly, but that'-s still much better than shooting up ice multiple times a day. i'm really surprised i've gone this long. i'm trying to have faith in myself.
i also REALLY need to quit smoking cigarettes.

It is going so well, I don't even know what to say anymore. I'm looking back at my addiction as if I can't believe I was ever such a slave to alcohol. For years and years I kept saying "tomorrow, I'll stop tomorrow". When I eventually did, it was such a relief and I can't believe it took me so long.
