1 day at a time eventually adds up to 30.......


Tomorrow will be my AH 30 days.  Hi Five Hubby!
What is different today than when he was drinking?  He is sober.  I am working on myself.  I have been cooking and keeping the house up.  He is working in the yard........

What is the same?  We still don't talk much.  We still aren't very inimate.  We still don't agree.  I still hate it when he drives and he still doesn't take directions very well...........

What is nice?  I heard him laugh again.  A true belly laugh.  It was nice. 

I am thankful for the tools I am learning and the tools he is learning.

I am having a hard time living in the present, but I have faith that I'll be okay. 

Sunday we went to church togther for the 1st time in at least a year!  Being in church was wonderful!

What is ahead of us is a mystery!!!!!!!  I am uncertain of what the outcome will be.  I still don't know if this is the man I will spend the rest of my life with, and that hurts.

Sincerely,

((((((Sincerely)))))),

Your post reminded me of:

"Yesterday is history; tomorrow is a mystery; today is the present and that's why we call it a gift."

If he is a sober, today is a gift.

Keep coming,
Maria

Contrats on your 30!  My husband will be getting out of rehab on Friday, and it will be his 30.  I feel the same way as you.  Sometimes I think there's too much done to undo, but I will continue to work on me, and hopefully he will continue to work on him.   Like you said, still don't know if this is the man I want to spend my life with, but I'll take it one day at a time.  (((Hugs)))

I saved 3 lives today! I gave blood for the 1st time in 10 years! I feel good about that!
