My quest for an alcohol free life: December 2014
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Thursday, 18 December 2014. If it's so great why do I feel so bad? Today is the first day of the school holidays. I was going to take my son into the city to see the Myer Christmas windows. We were going to go on the train and it was going to be an adventure. We were going to have a great time. I really want today to be another day 1. And it might be for a while. But I just know that I will succumb again because the forever thing scares the hell out of me. Putting Down ...

My quest for an alcohol free life: May 2015
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Friday, 29 May 2015. I need some motivation please! Day 12 today and still feeling tired. I keep getting told that it will take a while for this tiredness to go away, but I'm becoming impatient! I wonder how much of my tiredness is to do with my low iron levels and how much of it is related to giving up alcohol. Who knows, I just hope I feel better soon. In fact, it's so frustrating that I haven't lost any weight yet. Maybe it's too soon? It's just so frustrating! When ...

My quest for an alcohol free life: July 2014
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Thursday, 31 July 2014. So, what happens now? I was very drunk and ended up arguing with my brother (who was also very drunk), even arguing about dad. And that was the night that he probably died. Is it a sign? Does it mean something? I don't know. I just feel so sad inside. Monday, 28 July 2014. One month. should be feeling happy. I really could have done with a drink the last few days! But I didn't have one. Just 3 days until the end of July and I will supposedly ...

My quest for an alcohol free life: Thinking of going to a meeting
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2015/07/think-of-going-to-meeting.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Thursday, 16 July 2015. Thinking of going to a meeting. Today is day 60. I can't quite believe it! I think I will get myself something special to mark the occasion. I feel like I should have lots to say but my mind has gone blank. Maybe I'm just tired. Anyway, I'd better get going. I'm going to head into the city and try and get the courage to go to a meeting. 16 July 2015 at 12:08. I think I drove across town for an AA meeting and, looking back, there was no hushed sil...

My quest for an alcohol free life: April 2015
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Thursday, 30 April 2015. Is there any point to having this blog? I don't know. I think it does help. I like having this place to come to. Should I write more about myself? Or should I just stick to whether or not I'm drinking. I think a part of me worries that my husband might read this, so I don't want to say too much. Despite our problems, I do love my husband. I just wish things were different. I didn't miss it at all and had a great time! I was so annoyed! I don't k...

My quest for an alcohol free life: Day 54
http://itstimetogetsober.blogspot.com/2015/07/day-54.html
My quest for an alcohol free life. Friday, 10 July 2015. I'm back home after a lovely week in the country with my family. I'm sorry I haven't responded to the comments on my last post. It was hard to blog in a household full of people! He really needs help to stop drinking as he is physically dependent. He would need a medically supervised detox. But at least he is thinking about his drinking. That's a start. Tonight we are going out to dinner with my friend C and her hubby and son. I enjoy going out...

Finding my life without alcohol. Quick check in – I’m perched in the bathroom whilst two small boys create tidal waves and general havoc in their evening bath. Fans of Calvin and Hobbes will be able to picture the scene with a degree of accuracy. The downstairs electrics are in danger, but hey, they’re having fun. I wanted to note something very significant. The periods of time between my cravings for wine are. January 7, 2017. January 7, 2017. 26 thoughts on “Time dilation”. January 7, 2017 at 6:44 pm.

A month. A month! – RedRecovers
https://redrecovers.wordpress.com/2016/12/13/a-month-a-month
Finding my life without alcohol. A month. A month! Bloody hell – where’s that gone? Last week was a blur of preparation for a weekend away. The stress levels were, quite simply, insane. Did I crumble? I found myself feeling nostalgic about the idea of drinking once, when walking through the dark cobbled streets, past cosy-looking pubs. But I played the tape forward in my mind, and I didn’t like the end of the story so much. I’m ready for Christmas, and I want to see what the next 30 days brings me. 26 th...

Awash. But not with booze!! – RedRecovers
https://redrecovers.wordpress.com/2016/12/28/awash-but-not-with-booze
Finding my life without alcohol. Awash But not with booze! Ahhh Christmas. Sober. I’ve done it. If you’ve read the start of my blog, you’ll know I also made it through last Christmas sober, however I am a tiny bit further down the path this time, and it was a lot easier. Christmas Eve was possibly the best ever. well, right up until about 10pm…. On the rug not on the wool carpet. So – as you can probably gather, it’s been a subdued, less than magical experience. The hurling has finally ab...Sick bugs str...

Without me it's just aweso. 4 December, 2016. I guess I should feel proud, I mostly feel surprised. I’ll celebrate properly and be in the basement trying to un-block our sewer that has been backed up in some disgusting way. I guess our childrens excessive use of toilet paper and the rather impressive amount of poo manufactured by said children was just too much for this 100 year old house. Maybe there is some divine irony in all of this? 99 problems, but a drink ain’t one. 11 thoughts on “ I made it.
