40 days!

40 days today. Bunnies galore here.... It's a bit lonely but otherwise I'm alright. I feel so much better physically, mentally and emotionally. My belly has gone down and my organs arent reminding me everyday I'm in trouble. I'm accomplishing more than I thought I could without putting heavy demands on myself. It's more like I get to do this and that for myself. My kids are grown, its just me so I spend my money on myself. It is all going towards health stuff and house repair but I'm okay with that for sure. I've read 4 books and just gave myself a break on that last week. Got a new kindle fire :fire: I'm really enjoying. Been walking 2 to 4 miles a day. That helps me feel like I'm getting in shape. Took a class for work I enjoyed. None of this would have happened nor would be possible without recovery. I broke it off with someone that I care about and have known a long time but he's not right for me. At least in the now. I wouldnt have the strength for that if I were still drinking that's for sure. Spiritually I'm grounded....I care, I'm aware of my defects, of what I need to improve but ALSO what I deserve! We aren't victims but booze sure makes me feel like one. I go to meetings at least every other day to remind me that booze wants to kill me Lost my favorite Aunt to this disease this year - wet brain. Not a pretty way to go. My cousin who was 40 committed suicide. Many things in the universe show me and give me the feeling I'm on the right path. :star2: Together we can do this....the peace of waking up without a hangover alone is worth it.
