I am so grateful to be sober today. I’m grateful to have celebrated one year of sobriety yesterday and that today is just 366 days. I’m grateful for the truest friends, for a wonderful partner, for my parents who have supported me, for how different things are now, and for one last day off before I go back to work.
Good morning my friends and happy 2023! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, is rested, recharged and I am so grateful we made it through the holidays sober :)
Yesterday I celebrated one whole year of sobriety and it honestly was surreal…New Year’s Eve was kind of weird. I was having flash backs to being passed out on the floor of my building, so many green tea shots, insisting I was going to take an Uber from New York to New Jersey (don't ask me why)…
And now, my life is so different in so many beautiful ways. Today is just 366 days and I couldn’t be any more grateful for that either.
I was surround by so much love and support yesterday and am surrounded by that same love and same support everyday too. So, my heart is just filled with so much gratitude.
Tomorrow, I go back to work so I will suck every second of relaxtation out of this day today. I’m not a big “resolutions” girl, I feel like there is so much pressure in those. But my goal for this year (amongst many others) is to maintain the level of clam I have felt these past two weeks, even when I’m back at work.
Because no matter how many irritating people there are in the world…I don't have to let them take my peace.
Overall, I would love to hear any goals you guys have for 2023 too. May we take on this year with grace and get through whatever life has in store for us together. In the meantime, I will see you again on Thursday :)
With so much love always,
Jane
