Today is day 49, 7 weeks.  I'm consistently going to the forest with the dog on Sunday.  This morning instead of taking the longer trail to the lake, I took the uphill short route.  49 days ago I...

Today is day 48.  I'm creeping up on day 50.  Again, on one level, I find this completely unbelievable, and at the same time, I know the work I put it into this.  Being at this point didn't happen...

Today is day 47.  Last night I stopped at the store before I came home.  I picked up some things for dinner, salmon, asparagus and makings for a risotto.  I got some chai tea which I like in the...

Today is day 46.  I read this morning 'Nothing will change unless you make a change.'  I am committed to making a life change.  I do not drink.  I am the tree, not the leaves.  I am the sky, not...

It's day 45 and all is good.  This last week I would say I have thought of the liquor store more than any other time since I first quit or maybe not, maybe just now I really notice it because I'm...

Yesterday I completed my goal of hiking the peak.  It was very rewarding as it was something I didn't think I could do and that was the point of it.  I wanted this to be a milestone in my sobriety....

Hike the peak goal achieved.  Feels really good.  Tired but I did it, right to USGS marker.  Might write more tomorrow, but time to rest.It is day 43.  I am making a life change.  I do not...

It is day 42.  I survived having feelings.  :)  The temptation to drink them away was really strong.  I was able to sit in them and just let myself feel.  It eventually passed and it was a good...

Hmmm...something in contacting my old friend has cracked the wall in me.  It's not a bad thing.  It's unexpected, and at the same time, can be handled.  She had suggested getting together a number...

I imagine I am on an arctic mission or a sea faring voyage.  Journal entry:  'It is day 41, morning, land was sighted at first light.  We are making our way cautiously into the harbour.  We do...

Today is day 40.  Happy to see that number.  Stayed in bed for another half hour after my alarm went off reading the support group postings. I find that helpful.  Right now I can look and say I...

Today is day 39.  Pretty fun to be on the cusp of a day 40.I'm getting some good time in the mornings for some goals.  Unfortunately it's coming at the cost of a good breakfast.  I need to...

Today is day 38.  Moving steadily toward 40.  A bit pressed for time this morning.  I have one of my goals mapped out and I work on it in the morning.  Puts me a bit behind time wise here.  I...

It's day 37.  Closing in on 40.  Did some work on a couple of my goals yesterday.  Felt good.  Not so much new goals as old ones I'm picking up again.  Adding some focus to.  Adding a goal,...

It is day 36.  Yesterday took time to look at some goals, narrowing down to three I would like to concentrate on.  Today I want to make a list of things I used to enjoy or that I think I might...
