Thank goodness for Sober October, because that old habit is trying to sneak its way back in. For three early evenings in a row, a Bud seemed like a good idea. And then two more, and a whopping snort of Scott’s CC to wrap it up with.
How is it that I JUST DO NOT want to, and then all of a sudden, I do? And why do I give in so easily, after having gone without for such a good, long, happy stretch?
I’m going to figure it out, eventually – or, at least I’ll grow to cherish being booze-free, regardless of those “reasons” – so, hello, Sober October!
This awesome Daily Sobriety Kit, and this Hello Someday 30 day guide were huge helpers back in March. Today is another start. I’ve decided to really dive back in, this time with a little more awareness of my triggers, and a greater understanding of why “self-care” is so important to the process. I’m grateful for what I’ve learned so far, and really happy (and grateful) for all the resources that have found me up until now. I feel as though I am really and truly ready for a higher-quality reality – and I’m kind of excited about it, too…!
