It's a beautiful day. Happy Spring everyone. I am heading out in a few hours to Santa Barbara to spend the weekend with my sister. Today is day 24 for me without any Alcohol, chocolate, or sugar. Not a record span of abstinence but it has been surprisingly easy this time around. My concern is that I am "not concerned" about tripping up over the next 4 days away. My downfall in the past year of attempts at giving up these substances has been at a time when I felt the least tempted, or having zero cravings and forgot how insidiously these things slip back into my hand and then my mouth. I DO have some plans for next week when I return and I am excited to get started. Maybe that excitement for the next "experiment" will hold me over? My fingers are crossed.
