Journal Entry for August 28, 2008 Mood
Thursday, August 28, 2008 | A General Update story

Well, here I am at 5 months!  I can't believe it.  I'm feeling so good sober.  I was isolating a little bit but not anymore!  I even started exercising again...good thing because my weight is up.

 

Not much to report.  My baby is going to be a teenager in a few weeks (9/11) and we are having his bday party at the beach this weekend.  I can't believe how much they have grown and how much better we are now that I'm not a drunk.

 

Even my relationship with my exhusband is better.  My bf and I still struggle a little bit, but I am actually able to talk to him now instead of freaking out and getting drunk and angry. 

 

I don't know if we will make it, but I sure am trying to repair the drunken damage I did to our relationship.

 

That's all I can do right now.  One day at a time for me.
