Trying to get back into the groove


I admit I've been letting my recovery slip and using the excuse that life has been just too overwhelming and busy as of late.  I have to get back on track and do my daily readings and start working in my 12 step workbook again (since I lost my other one!).

Spouse is moving all his belongings back into our house this weekend and it is causing me some anxiety.  I just keep reminding myself it's just stuff.  It's just a house - my daughter will be home full time - finances will be easier (hopefully) and maybe I can focus on my recovery again and see how it works within the relationship.  I know I cannot do it alone but I know that if I keep my side of the street clean that's the best that I can do.

I still have days where I think WTH am I doing??  But they are getting less and less because the decision is made.  We are going on a vacation together as a family in April to the beach.  I cannot wait.  I so love the ocean.

We spoke about this recently that when things are bad that it's so easy to work recovery when things are good is when it's harder to not get distracted and say ok I really don't need this right now.

Sending lots of love and support, remember keep coming back your worth it!! Enjoy the family vacation so happy for you guys!!

Hugs p :)
