Sometimes I escape the madness and go sit in the rain...in the playhouse...and be grateful. 🙏🏻 #solitude #quarintine #rainydays
I planted dwarf sunflowers MONTHS ago. They grew and then stopped growing. They were stunted due to lack of sun. Then I moved them. Here is my first bloom. . Sometimes we need to remove ourselves from situations that are not helping us grow. . We can learn so much from gardening. 🌻
AA all the way. Never thought I’d say it. 🙏🏻 . 8 years at the end of the month and it’s only because I have kept coming back despite my pride and ego saying I don’t need to. Of course I do! God won’t let me stay away. Believe me, I’ve tried...like, at LEAST 5 times. #acceptanceistheanswertoallmyproblemstoday #iboozeilooze #mypeeps #fellowship #drunks #alcoholicsanonymous #alcoholism #addiction
My car is a mess and so is my house. So I ran 5 miles to forget about it for a few🏃🏻‍♀️#endorphins #runnershighisthebesthigh #tools #therapy #runnersofinstagram #runforyourlife #soberrunner
Update since my live story: of course I didn’t drink! I’ll have 8 years in 1.5 months and I have everything to lose. No way I’d throw it all away for just one glass. Cuz we all know it’s never “just one.” . . . Clearly. 😉 Coffee AND a Shirley temple with extra cherries for this girl! . . . I have so much to say about yesterday but imma save it for my next post for @sobermommies. Happy Sunday everyone!!
This was me last Friday after being pushed to my limit for the gazillionth time. I had to get us out for a drive to calm down. And it worked. She cried. I cried. And then we stopped. . . . Parenting is not for the faint of heart. It takes tremendous strength to face the challenges without having my own tantrums and meltdowns from time to time. They happen. Sometimes they are not pretty and I feel bad. Really really bad. . . . But then I think about how much worse it would be if I were drinking. 🙈 Like, what if I had been drinking and then got in the car and drove around? Omg, I shudder at the thought. . . . I still cringe at thinking of the kind of trauma I have imposed on my babies with my yelling and adult tantrums. The shameful noise inside my head is deafening. . . . But again, at least I’m not drinking. And as long as I don’t pick up and stay close to my God, we are all going to be just fine. . . . #iboozeilooze #mommyguilt #tears #sober #feelings #trauma #halt #recovery #recoveringoutloud #morewillberevealed #sobriety #alcoholic #alcoholism #sobermommies @sobermommies
