34 days of continuous sobriety. Yesterday I wanted to drink

34 days of continuous sobriety. Yesterday I wanted to drink so bad. I went to a meeting, then thanks God I felt better. But I don’t feel always better after meetings. Meetings are very different. Something I think it’s just a wasting of time. But at the same time I understand this is my pride and I need to swallow that it replace it with humility.

Today I attended noon meeting. Nothing new, but I am feeling okay.
Spending time in a park before I pick up my baby from daycare. Reading, talking to God, journaling.
One hour at a time.

Save "pride" for being proud of achieving the things you work for. All pride isn't a bad thing.

Hang in there.

Keep it up!
Do your 90 in 90, commit to it. While you are at the meetings listen. Listen for the similarities, and listen to those people who talk about the solution.
Just don’t drink one day at a time.

We can have pride in achieving and that’s not the same as false pride and arrogance.

Meetings don’t always make me feel better either. Sometimes nothing can. But today I know that is a choice I am making. Keep it up Jane! Sobriety is so much more than not drinking. A beautiful world awaits!!!!!
