Ok, so this is now day 11 (I think) on Lex. I have to admit, I feel pretty good. In the last 24 hours, I've noticed that I'm laughing and smiling more than usual. (Which isn't hard to do) And I'm much less stressed over finances. Its sort of a "cest la vie" kinda attitude. I've also felt a bit closer to my kids. Where normally I try to avoid them, its been a bit easier this week to enjoy their presence.
I also went to my first AA meeting on Monday. Yup, that's right..AA. And let me tell you, had aliens landed in my front yard I would not have been as suprised as I was when I said..."Hi may name is ** and I am an alcoholic". It was surreal! But they are a very kind and spiritual bunch of people. The group is obviously set up to help facilitate a feeling of God's presence in one's life. I think I will allow that, and see what happens.
Anyway, so far so good. I'm not drinking. My mood is beginning to improve. And I've started loosing weight! Bonus!
