Day 50 without the alcohol, whoop whoop for me. The five o clock happy hour mode has passed and not on the front lobe of my brain anymore, cooking has taken on a whole new level so that makes me happy. I am pretty proud of myself and feel that I am in a total reset and mindset about alcohol. I know that totally quitting is not my overall goal, just a different mindset. You can get caught in the trap of, hubby comes home, have a cocktail with him, start cooking dinner and another cocktail. Before you know it, you’re an expensive date and the weekends run into the week days. With a clear mind you can see the habit, and part of breaking a habit is acknowledging it.
So my next 50 days, I will be focusing on the return of things that totally fill my soul. I love to garden and get into the dirt, take something full of weeds and bring it back to its ultimate beauty. Doing my crafts that make me proud to have done something with my hands, and hop on my sewing machine and create things for my granddaughter and what other grand babies in our future.
I have a big goal, of turning our apartment in an air b&b, that’s going to take some time and energy, and something that takes some focus. With big goals, it doesn’t allow for to many beer brakes if you want to get something done. Lesson learned!!
50 days no alcohol and I feel great, I wake up pretty sharp and ready to get a roll on the day. I set daily goals which in most parts I achieve. I feel like when I look at myself in the mirror, I don’t look as old as I did. I just wish I would lose some weight a bit faster, but I hope at day 100 that will be a different story 🤞
All and all I didn’t know what to expect from this challenge and thought I was a bit crazy for doing it, but I’m glad I have, so cheers to the next 50 days 🥂
