So it’s sober Saturday & day 8 of no booze yahoo!!!
Yep it hasn’t been that bad at all today when I think about it. Went out as planned for coffee & cake with my husband & little boy & did some shopping. A fair few times the not boozing tonight came into my head but I brushed it off each time. I would usually be obsessed with the thoughts of not drinking tonight & it would make me nervous & miserable. It was nice not to have to think about when will I get the chance to pick up my bottle for tonight? Will I get an extra bottle to hide etc..? I felt I was more aware today- more in the moment with my husband & child & moments of genuine happiness. I suppose my usual Saturday would be focusing on the evening looking forward to getting drunk which meant I was not in the moment. My husband has also being giving me more hugs than usual & I caught him looking at me in a loving was a couple of times. I didn’t ask him why- either he is making more of an effort also or I seem different to him & he is responding.
So let’s see how the rest of the night goes. Will I miss it terribly ? Hmmm I dunno so far so good. I can do this !
I’m looking forward to ordering food & maybe a foot massage from the hubby – the simple things & actually remembering them.
Let’s live this life ! Lol
