Leap day musings - Things I no longer put up with/ Good things

I don't let other people do or say shit stuff to me. "No" is a complete sentence.

I experience my feelings rather than just numbing them with alcohol.

I might act on my feelings but I do this in a positive manner, not going off on a rant or picking a fight or sulking.

I recognize chaotic situations and I get away from them asap.

I now know *I* am in charge of my happiness. no one else.

I now look and feel much less bloated.

My skin is smooth and unblemished.

My sleep is improving - still find it difficult to fall asleep but the quality is good.

I am much more productive and clear headed.

I am much more tolerant of other people's moods and dramas, but I won't deal with their shit. I now have the view - "not my circus, not my monkeys"

Day 10 - feeling good

Today I woke up and I felt good :) Tired, but good. I feel optimistic and am planning ahead rather than just existing to get through another day.

I am trying to embrace my new sober life and feel good about it rather than deprived of drinking.  A lot of what I am doing is retraining my brain to accept new patterns of thought.

Planning my sober treat to mark 2 weeks sobriety.

Sober treats? Prawn cocktail for lunch, a new note book ( I have filled up the one I started new on Day 1!) a magazine with an expensive aromatherapy hand cream free inside :)
