Day 22

Wow! I'm loving this getting into a healthy sleeping routine thang. To be fair, I was so exhausted after 6 hours on a coach (total) to spend 3hrs in the freezing cold at Richard Arkwright's first water-powered spinning mill yesterday that I fell into deep sleep with no problems at all at around midnight, as I had the night before. What was the biggest surprise of yesterday was waking and getting up at 7am...this is not something that I'm used to at all but it was easy. I'm still in shock! I slept so well last night that I woke just before 9am feeling well rested and ready for the day...jeepers I haven't had that feeling in an awfully long time. Didn't get half so much liquid as I needed yesterday so today I shall load up.

I missed acupuncture yesterday; I was so grateful to still have the 'seed's in. I will be going for the ear needles today and then I go to visit with the Blackpool Alcohol Team, who are the 'staying sober' folks and the next step on from the 'getting sober' folks in our local addict services.

I have given myself this next week to put a lot of prayer and effort into creating a really positive self talk so that I might finally get this multi-bender essay over and done with. Wish me luck.

I'm so bloody grateful to be sober today and thankful to have somewhere to come write about it where folks 'get' it.
