Today I’m greatful for all of it. Coming up on 9 months sober from alcohol, after 6 years of drinking atleast half a bottle of vodka every night, and I feel fantastic! The past month has been extremely difficult. My ex broke up with me after almost 11 years, 2 amazing daughters, a house, and all that go with it. She ended up moving onto another dude just 6 days after leaving me. And due to her name being on the deed, she’s still living here. 
But dealing with all of that, along with support from my small circle of friends, I began to really focus on my girls and for once in my life, me. I began working out, reading, being around friends that I lost touch with from drinking, and so much more. Every day is always a 50/50 on how my mood will be but the bad days are becoming fewer and farther apart. So, I’m grateful for the hard times and everything that has pushed me into this new mindset and cannot wait to see how much better it gets. If you’re reading this and are in a bad place, it gets better! It may be impossible to see but I promise, just keep going and you’ll be out of the storm.
