Day ten - Double figures!

Just a quick post as its been a hectic week, as I'm back to work. But, I've made it into double figures YAY!

Still feeling good, great infact and feeling the benefits of no alcohol both physically and mentally. I feel brighter and my skin feels brighter too for some reason! Sleep is getting better, though being really busy and more active helps and my appetite is really picking up so I need to watch what I eat as I'm prone to snack on junk and that makes me feel sluggish and yucky.

I'm pretty pleased so far and feel stronger by the day and am certainly more productive. Ten days doesn't seem that long but its made a hell of a difference. I think the kids appreciate the difference though they haven't said as much. I do have more time for them and patience too.

This is a phase I know I need to watch as I can tend to start firing on all cylinders and get my accelerator stuck! I know I used drink to wind down when I was like this so am trying to build in some relaxation time into each day, even if its just a nice soak in a hot bath. I am really appreciating being able to think more clearly and having the freedom from that constant drink/no drink/guilt trip debate that used to constantly go round in my head. It feels so peaceful!

Thanks again for all the comments, it really helps motivate me as I don't get much support elsewhere, other than on line.

I'll get round to visit you all at the weekend :-)
