One year today

Hi guys!

So I'm a year sober (I prefer off the drink myself but sure I'll try it on for size) today! Woo hoo, amazing, I rock etc. I am really pleased. Only problem is my sister and my little niece have been here all week and last night me and my sis had a HUGE row. We have been known to argue alot but last night was a different level. I swear to god it nearly got physical. We are both so reactive to eachother and killed eachother as kids. But we also get on really well too. I had to take a zanax to get to sleep I was so upset. Why can't I hold my tongue and be more tolerant of people and just be nicer?! I'm really questioning what sort of person I am today...

We've sorted things out this morning but it's sort of put a dampener on the day that's in it.

So sorry that I can't be more excited about a year off the booze but other things happen. I suppose that's life and a good example of not drinking even when horrible things get in the way.

So go me (sort of)

  1. Yay Mtts! Definitely...Go you! I'm sorry about your argument with your sister but please don't be beating yourself up about being a 'nicer' person and shouldering all the blame. It's a really crappy feeling to fall out with a sibling, but imagine how much worse it would have been with drink in the mix. Congratulations on your year sober X

  2. Really well done you on making it to a year! It really is no mean feat!!! I hope it just gets easier and easier for you. It will be a year for me next week and am feeling quite confident about things today. Not always but today am glad I'm still not drinking! Families can really bring out the worst in each other. I hope it works out between you and your sister! Sending you a big hug xxx

  9. Oh fantastic ONE YEAR that is amazing and I am so in awe. As for the sister drama wel maybe this was the universe sending you a little test "One year sober ah? Let's see if this tests your resolve" Either way you made it through. I hope you and your sister can mend the fences maybe this was clearing out old shit and it will clear the air, maybe not. Well done you for all of it.

  10. Thanks for your blog. Just read your old Day 16 since that's about where I am. Seems everyone is a bit moody about now. Explains how I feel. My hubby is doing well with the swings though, thank goodness.

  11. Hey MTTS - sorry I missed this, your site's in my wordpress followed sites but this didn't pop up. Bloody stupid technology. Anyway - firstly many, many congrats on the year, that's amazing! I remember you starting this blog! Secondly, sorry to hear about the row with your sister. Sometimes we fight mist fiercely with the ones we love eh? Hold on to the sentence "but we also get on really well too". I had some humdingers with my Dad in my time, but we always made up and all I really remember is how well we got on! Red xx
