90 Days

I feel so proud.  And so grateful for this entire process of recovery.  The things I'm learning are affecting my life so profoundly, in so many ways, other than just my desire to not use any drink/drug anymore.  I stand up for myself more and don't feel guilty for taking the time to do what I need to do for myself.  I'm eating better, exercising, and relaxing more and basically becoming a friend to myself. And in a weird way, it's making me a better wife, mom and friend to others...cause I don't go around with pent up frustration and irritation. And the world does not come to an end when I tell someone, "No, I'm sorry, but I can't do x,y or z".

Such a new way to live.  

Thanks for all the help and support I get here.  Its' been awesome:-)
