40 days dry and just checking in.

So, it’s been a pretty easy trip sofar. Still doing the gym, still finding hobby time to keep my mind moving. Had 2 strong urges the last week, so I’m staying on high alert. I’m pry a solid 8 on optimism and hopefulness that this sticks.

I’ve had a lot of sober time, so naturally I’ve been reflecting about past choices, things I’ve done under the influence. Had time to think about the damage done. I wondered what my life would have been if I quit 10 years ago. What my social circle and love life would have amounted to. What other opportunities and choices I would have had a chance at. Funny how deep reflections can get when your mind is clear.

Hope everyone is hanging in there. Hope everyone’s still on their own journey. Best of wishes people.
