Well, today is day #150 of NC and my recovery! I am so absolutely proud of myself, I can't articulate how much. I know I have had my ups and downs over the past 150 days but this evening I am feeling good about myself and my progress. Even when I have been in a tough place, I have not reached out to my recent qualifier or any past qualifiers. Moreover I have not actively searched for any new ones either. I have also been blessed with unexpected benefits besides sobriety from being a part of SLAA. The ability to effectively manage emotions, get to know myself, cultivate a relationship with God, set boundaries, and develop a stronger relationship with my family and friends, especially with my son. Engaging in my hobbies, getting plenty of exercise, and working to improve myself are other benefits. To that end, I started writing my personal statement for my grad school application this evening! I need a minimum of 3 pages and I am on page 2 now! One day at a time.
