600 and 60
I was 600 days clean from opiates yesterday. An absolutely amazing feeling. At the height of my addiction, I could not last 6 minutes without thinking about the drugs. When I would be able to get the next one. Counting, scheming. God, it was just such an awful state to be in. I am free now. Totally free. Tomorrow will mark 60 days completely sober from alcohol too. While alcohol never dominated my thinking the way opiates did, it certainly left its mark on my life.
I am so grateful and happy to be at this point in my life. I leave for Florida later today. A work conference for 4 days, and then my husband and kids come down to join me for 5 days in Disney World. It will be my kids first real "away vacation" and they cannot wait to meet Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, Goofy, Pluto...and of course ALL of the princesses. The thought of spending the entire week with them, being able to totally focus on the fun and joy we are having, is just amazing. That alone is worth every single muscle cramp, sleepless night, GI nightmare and depressed minute I went through getting clean.
