So today has been a very good and proud day… Dog walk done First AA meeting done Podcast listened to My daughter is staying with me tonight so my apologies if I haven’t replied to any comments but thank you so much everyone. I really had time to reflect on why I’m doing this and actually took time to make memories have fun and appreciate what I have 💗 Goodnight all and well done to everyone we’ve got through another day 💗👍👏💪

Worked from home today and was really productive, back into work mode now thank goodness. My son popped in to put my Christmas decs back in the loft and told me not to buy any more Christmas Gonks, there were ten bags of decs 🤣🤣🤣🤣 he knows he’s wasting his breath and I will absolutely buy more Gonks 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 hope everyone has had a great day xx

Funny old day back to square one wound wise with a new bigger more shaven wound to care for. I saw it for the first time without a dressing today and was shocked for a second but it’s so neat. I sometimes also have to remind myself that’s not who I am it’s just a wound that helped to save my life… So in that case I don’t want to call it a wound, it should actually be my badge of honour 💕 I hope it doesn’t upset anyone but I feel I need to rip the bandaid off a reveal all for my own peace of mind. I am not what I look like this is just where my soul lives and I’m grateful to be alive ❤️

What can I say binging watching New Amsterdam, can't stop lol kept me occupied all day 🤦🏻‍♀️ must find something else to do it to cold brrrrh ! Hope you all doing well 👊💪😃x

AT THE TURNING POINT Half measures availed us nothing. We stood at the turning point. We asked His protection and care with complete abandon. ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 59 Every day I stand at turning points. My thoughts and actions can propel me toward growth or turn me down the road to old habits and to booze. Sometimes turning points are beginnings, as when I decide to start praising, instead of condemning someone. Or when I begin to ask for help instead of going it alone. At other times turning points are endings, such as when I see clearly the need to stop festering resentments or crippling self-seeking. Many shortcomings tempt me daily; therefore, I also have daily opportunities to become aware of them. In one form or another, many of my character defects appear daily: self-condemnation, anger, running away, being prideful, wanting to get even, or acting out of grandiosity. Attempting half measures to eliminate these defects merely paralyzes my efforts to change. It is only when I ask God for help, with complete abandon, that I become willing—and able—to change.
