10 days ;)

Just wanted to let y'all know I'm still hanging in there. Physical withdrawals are gone, basically, and things are a LOT better but I have a ways to go. I really don't want to go back, I wasn't living on the pills, but I almost feel like I forgot how to live without em. I am doing my job SO much better, makes me wonder exactly how much sh*t have I been overlooking or putting off?! Easy to do when you have the old foggy head. I want the old me back, the person that used to try to find stuff for the family to do on weekends (they all need a little push from MamaBear). I feel like I am rotting in front of the Tv.  I want to get involved in church but nothing is coming naturally. Everything feels forced. I'll be patient. I am thankful or the clean time. Just hope I can keep it up. Good luck to everyone just starting out. It gets better!!! Dig deep and reclaim your passion for good, clean, life.

This stage is hard. But you have to just make yourself do it. Set something to do each day or weekend and do it.

I alwYs think I should be doing all these things and why aren't i? Is this life? Yep. No one is running around constantly unless it is for kids. Otherwise my life is boring. Church is easy. Go and do the service and Sunday school classes each week.  And just do whatever else is going in. They will welcome you. Pick a good fellowship church. One that is homey.

Don't stress too much about what you aren't doing. Just figure out what you want and how to do it. Plan ahead and it will start to happen then.

And great job on the 10 days!!! Yeah!!!  Keep up with the vitamins, continue to eat good and get dome exercise.
