how do you start your day?
“𝐀𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝗼𝐮 𝐩𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝗼𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝗼𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝗼𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 2𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝗼𝐮 𝐥𝗼𝗼𝐬𝐞“ I remember when I first heard those words in #treatment
Not a moment goes by that I don’t remember them. Therefore, my life revolves around my #recovery NOT the other way around...
So, this is what my morning looks like, while #meditation music is playing and yummy white sage is burning...
We don’t graduate, we never finish. Our #graduation day is the day we leave this earth. Recovery is a life long process...
In order for you to maintain the #sobriety that you worked so hard to achieve, you absolutely must take care of you and your needs above all others....
Life gets “lifey”, I get it! However, not being able to find ways to put your #recovery first can put your hard earned sobriety in jeopardy...
Recovery entails continually working on the character defects that had kept you stuck in addiction as well as repairing and restoring the relationships with family and friends that were compromised as a result of your substance abuse.
When you are actively taking steps to take care of yourself and are adequately taking care of your needs, you are better able to be of #service to others and you will be able to truly connect with others on a deeper level...

how the hell did I become a wino...
shiiiiiit,
where the hell do i even begin...
i have been putting this off for a while because for one, where & how do i even begin and two, when you’re a blackout drinker, it’s hard as hell to remember a lot of what happened towards the end of my “career” and well, that makes it next to impossible write about it without a lot of thought, and lots of input from my dear husband. bless his heart...
i somehow can remember
i was the normal girl in high school, i would drink on weekends and smoke everybody’s weed, any day of the week. there other drugs throughout the years but nothing i ever thought much about. i wasn’t the one to ever buy that kind of stuff but any drug that was offered to me, i didn’t think twice about taking. the first time i smoked weed, it was with my aunt... i figured if a family member, who is an adult, offered, it couldn't be that bad. ha, first clue i was a dumbass {fyi, don't write about it in a letter in school and forget about it and have your mom find it, then aunt and you are both a little fucked! as you can see, i've always been uber smart}
i was 15, a sophomore in highschool when i met my husband at a corner gas station. to clarify, i was out walking around town with a friend, probably looking for weed & beer, not working the corner... proof that true love can be found almost anywhere when you least expect it. my friend knew him and introduced us... cute, tall, skater boy, yep, i'll take him
i am breaking this down into many many many posts, i hate to read long winded shit so i assume everyone is like me...
part 2 of 257,098 tomorrowish and it will be video so you can here how eloquent {redneck} i sound....
stay so sober my friends,
