Ten days with no drinking. I have a quote I found, no name was attached to it, which I read everyday:
"Actually, I just work up one day and decided I didn't want to feel like that anymore, or ever again. So I changed."
This is how I wish I would feel about not drinking. One day I will.
Go you! Double digits yay.
ReplyDeleteAs Judge Judy says in her book that I can't put down (I know) "I would rather burn out than rust out".
I was rusting out before, just buried in drinking a complaining, semi living, thinking I was the king of the hill - but I was kidding myself. Now I am starting to burn, just faintly, but the light is there :)
Lots of support to you Lia :)

I like that quote by Judge Judy, I may borrow that one. The support you've shown means much, it's helping me stay the course. But as you know, this is rough, I want to get to the other side of that obstacle course Sober Mummy wrote about. To the place you and others have reached. Thanks M!
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Lia!
ReplyDeleteI didn't feel like that right away, but one day, after a public humiliation, I knew I couldn't go on.
The path is tricky at first, but just climb one rock at a time.

Thanks Wendy! I'm holing on, and a coincidence you should mention rocks. I collect rocks from around the world. Friends/family bring them to me from their travels, as well as me bringing them home from all the places I've been! Now the rocks mean something more!
