Jut wanted to share how I felt yesterday evening. I'm currently on holiday in Seminyak Bali. Oh still drinks but that doesn't matter, its no big deal. I can still laugh and be silly without alcohol. When he says he fancies a cold beer I can say.. Oh yes sounds good. I know exactly how… Continue reading AM : Wednesday – Day 411

AM : Day 405 – Ubud
I realised a long time ago that I am an all or nothing kind of person. I've read that quite a lot of people who are like this have tenancies to lean towards some sort of addiction. For me it was wine, once I stopped drinking it was chocolate. Now that I am holiday (too… Continue reading AM : Day 405 – Ubud
AM : Monday – Day 402 – Ubud
Lovely breakfast this morning in Ubud. Last night went out on a pub/bar crawl which involved numerous fresh fruit juices and body cleansers, and it was fun and exciting. If I had been drinking I would have felt tired and my eyes would have been rolling, my appetite would have been lost to only fancying… Continue reading AM : Monday – Day 402 – Ubud
AM: Monday – Day 389 (55 weeks & 4 days)
I haven't posted in ages. Kept wanting to but sat here looking and not doing. Reminds me of when I suffered with depression. I would look at the front door willing myself to go out but never going. Sat in drinking instead. Well I'm not drinking but I do feel a bit run down. It's… Continue reading AM: Monday – Day 389 (55 weeks & 4 days)
PM : Friday – Day 365
Well here we are. The day has finally arrived when I can say I am 1 year sober! Never have I ever been sober this long. I am truly blessed. I have posted this today on a Facebook group that I belong to which has helped me enormously. It is a group for graduates of… Continue reading PM : Friday – Day 365
AM : Wednesday – Day 363
Well I never! DAY 363... Just checked my "days since" widget about 10 times and yes it's definitely Day 363. How did the days suddenly become nearly a year. The last couple of weeks have been a massive turning point for me. I haven't felt "cheated" I haven't felt like I "would love" a glass… Continue reading AM : Wednesday – Day 363
PM : Sunday – Day 346
So I am just over 49 weeks AF. Just celebrated my birthday (first one AF) - not sure how I feel today. Tired, a bit nervy (those pesky I haven't done very much so I am going to feel guilty and nervy type of nerves) used to have them everyday but since being AF not… Continue reading PM : Sunday – Day 346
AM : Tuesday – 11 months
Today I wake up 11 months Alcohol Free! That sounds so weird! Nearly a year. The cheated feeling I had at Xmas has left me and been replaced with feeling grateful, extremely thankful that I have chosen to live AF. Living Alcohol free, a tee totaller, sober, words that I associated with greater mortals. Not… Continue reading AM : Tuesday – 11 months
AM : Sunday – Day 332
Herbal tea with lemon, delicious! So here I am at day 332. Snow has thawed after causing havoc! cats have woken me up early for their breakfast, eaten it and gone back to sleep! And I am reflecting on how long 332 days alcohol free really is - well its 7,968 hours! That's insane! I… Continue reading AM : Sunday – Day 332
AM : Thursday – Day 322 – 46 weeks
46 weeks sober now and I have noticed a slight change in how I feel when someone says "let's go out" or "can I pop over and see your cats" my neighbours love to see the cats or "it's your birthday soon mum shall we go out for dinner" Before I was sober I would… Continue reading AM : Thursday – Day 322 – 46 weeks
