Tomorrow, at around 3.00pm, I will have been off the drink, the demon alcohol for twelve weeks and I'm pretty pleased about that. There have been difficult moments but most of the time has been okay. It will continue to get easier and easier but I won't really notice this until I sit down and think about it.
It does still annoy me to think that I was off the drink for over a year before I fell off the horse pretty badly, well, pretty badly by my thoughts. It was also quite difficult to climb back on which is a lesson in itself I suppose. Not something that I want to go through again.
I have been down to the pub in town two or three times lately and it's been good to do that. Socially it makes a big difference. I meet and talk to people, some that I know and some that I've never met before which is great, it makes you into a (relatively) normal human being.
Now, if only I can make the normal bit last awhile.
