Im still sober this chilly December night.
Hi, good on you. What is it, about a week now? Hey, you are doing great! There may be ups and downs, but whatever...don't drink. We only live once, right? I don't want to waste my life in a stupor, and that's what I'd have if I picked up again.

It's cold here too, we have a fire going. Yesterday my husband suddenly got a terrible pain in his back that made it hard to catch his breath. By time I got home from work he was hurting so bad it scared me. Muscle spasm, I massaged his back and it eased up so much he could have dinner and go to sleep. He awoke in the middle of the night in terrible pain again, and I was right there to help him. That caused me to considered how it was when I was drinking. I would have been useless to him, and he deserves better, he deserves my best.

I was selfish when I was a drunk, and wasn't thinking clearly. I've seen the light now I have no excuse. Anyhow, time after time I am so grateful for this chance to be the best I can be. Not that every day I'm awesome, still I'm facing life not hiding from it.
