Day 67ive taken the last two days pretty much off work, ive gotten a lot of rest and im looking forward to work in the morning, we went to a casino last night and to the lake today, its only ten minutes away, I love the water so much, im going to spend a lot of weekends there.
It seems I have to continue to pay close attention and not let my mind play tricks on me, you see the better I do it seems the less I worry about where I was. Drinking has always been a big part of my life, and I know it always leads to other things, bad decisions, and worse. I have caught myself thinking its okay to have one beer, a couple of times and I know from past experience its not. I am doing very well at this point in my life and im not willing to go backwards, that is why I continue to check myself, I will not let my mind resort back to the old ways of thinking, its amazing how quick it can happen, if you let it, well its late and I want to get up early enough to write at five, so until then, James
Be careful, Jimmy. You are right, if you already know that drinking leads to more and worse, don't do it. Maybe the casino isn't a good place for you to go to right now? You know better than me but it doesn't seem like a good idea. Be careful and be true to yourself! I know you can do it...I love you and believe in you! Karin
ReplyDeleteHi, I agree that a casino is not a good place to be. Haven't been to one in a long time, but I remember they used to go around offering people free drinks. The lake sounds like a great place to go. It's nice that there's one nearby. Good for you that you are sticking to your guns and not letting yourself backslide! I for one am proud of you Jim that you are continually checking youself. God Bless! Nancy
ReplyDeleteA casino? Isn't that like a den of vice? I've never been to one, but I feel safe in saying, it's probably a place you ought to avoid like the plague! Don't you think?
ReplyDeleteBoy, you miss a few days and whew...
I'm proud you haven't backslidden, but do you have to get so close to the edge?
