Its the little things....

Ok, so I'm only 29 days sober today...haven't had any great spiritual awakenings to speak of, though I'm working on my relationship with God. I'm enjoying the little things I'm noticing being sober. For example, today I got a manicure. Not a big deal, I know. But the first manicure I've gotten where I didn't have to excuse my excessive sweating and shaking hands as having "had too much coffee". That's all. Simple dumb and superficial? Yes, but gratifying nonetheless:)

haha - now that I do drink too much coffee... I see that all the things I blamed coffee on, never actually happen! LOL

I thought I was the only one with the excuse of ... TOO much Coffee!!!

I had actually forgotten about that one ... and I really used it a lot ... I even remember a couple of times to the doctor's office ... Hey Mr. G, your 'blood pressure' is up and your heart rate is way up there too ... Yep, I just had two large cups of coffee, ... does it to me every time ... LOL

I'm happy for the little things as well Colleen, especially my wife's cooking. Can anyone say Yum? Enjoy your day, okay.

It's nice not to have to lie and hide anymore. Not carrying that around anymore is a bigger relief than I ever imagined.
