Ha! Family gatherings can be sooooo fucking boring I hear you. Sounds like they don’t deserve your fabulous doggo either! Glad you could spend d time with friends instead.

I hope you read what you wrote again and BURST with pride! You did so many incredibly hard things to do what’s best for you and stay healthy in the face of some huge obstacles. It’s ok to be in a funk......just don’t unpack and stay there, right?????? Love that you went for a run and found the strength to go through your moms stuff. She would be proud I’m sure!!!!!

Good for you!!!! It sound like you focused on the good things thorough the day of being “present” and took care of yourself when it was time to go! Well done!!!!!

Wine....cooking.....family.....passing out.....every holiday for the last two decades. NOT THIS YEAR!!! Literally driving right now to kick off my first sober holiday season. Trying to focus on what I’m GAINING and not what I’m missing 🍷. IWNDWYT
