well today is yet another beautiful spring day. for me, therapy is working in my gardens. its amazing how a few days of FINALLY being able to get out there in the sun and warmth makes you feel so good. whats even better is being able to get up early with no hangover and have that ability to get outside early. this is my therapy. day 57. my milestone will be when i see day 90. i have never made that day and right now that is my goal. one day at a time. i realized when i woke up this morning that when i came in lastnight i hadnt thought of drinking or alcohol all day. it didnt even enter my mind lastnight. i think i am surprised by that. last summer i dwelled everyday and obsessed about it. "needing" it. well i dont need it. i only "wanted" it. i am starting to see that now. mind you i am not saying its easy not drinking, because it can be harder than hell but it just seems this time eveything feels right. its different. i want to hold on to that. here's to another day soberalwaysdragonfly

Good Stuff, As we talked about many times \"the want has to more than the need\" not to drink.
to another day
You are doing so great with your sobriety. Thank you for sharing your thoughts you have helped me tonight. I have been going through a rough time of it and reading your journal tonight helped me. One day at a time Thank you so very much for sharing. Love Denise
You are inspirational and a good writer to boot. You should write a book.
