Thanks chinup.
6 weeks sober tmrw. Life is still progressing and I'm feeling more clear-headed. Most days I reverse commute out of NYC to pick my kid up from preschool and make her dinner at my mother's in the burbs before my ex picks her up. Tonight I'm staying over up here bec my ex has wedding photography gigs on the weekends thru October.
So, it's 11pm and my little one is asleep upstairs and I'm enjoying a cup of Golden Yunnan black tea, listening to some music and perusing the newspaper. Life is good.
There are some stresses, I've been asking my ex to send me some simple info I need from her for my daughter's applications to private kindergartens for 2020-21, for weeks now, and she just says ok I'll do it tomorrow and never does. Drives me bonkers.
But all in all things are good. Getting my finances in order to return to Uni next September, to complete my Computer Science degree, seems like a long way off but Spring term is just too soon, it will be a ton of work and I have to get better housing figured out and make sure I'm prepared.
Hope anyone reading this is doing okay too. There is hope after substances. My life was a complete disaster just 6 weeks ago, and you really wouldn't guess it if you met me today. Cheers.
