Courage to Change…

Officially the end of day #5 abstinent (on 301)

I feel like one of the biggest things that I’ve gained/am gaining in abstinence is more space, more time, more room to think.  For example, yesterday (Sunday night) instead of bingeing, I used the time to work on my “spending plan” for the next month, updated categories, etc.  I still have miles to go before I’m anywhere near financially sound, but it’s definitely a step in the right direction to be reinforcing these habits.    

Had a phone convo w. my sponsor and it really helps remind me of why I do this.  Someday, I want someone to want what I have.  And I want to be able to tell them how I got it.  That’s my goal.    

To everyone who reads… I’m really sorry that I’m not replying right now.  Just please know that if you leave a comment, it’s so greatly appreciated and if you leave a link to your blog, I’ll check it out. (or it might be included… not sure and haven’t figured it out yet… most of the time it just takes me to an e-mail to you or a comment to my comment…)
