Day 925 Clean & Sober

Good morning!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  One thing I'm really good at is doing things to the extreme.  I always give 110% at anything I do.  I'm an all in kinda girl.  Balance, I struggle with. I always have too many irons in the fire.  That is one thing I am continually working on.  The other day at a meeting we were talking about living one day at a time and planning ahead.  And that is something I struggle with I like to plan.  But one guy explained it really well for me.  It's hard to own a business and not plan, you have to. I totally get that!  So for that I can plan ahead, have a 401K, make dinner plans for next Saturday, plan a vacation for next March. But when it comes to sobriety, that's where you live one day at a time.  Not saying I will never drink again.  I can't do that.  I just worry about today.  Finding the balance between the two is hard.  When some people hear one day at a time, they really don't even look at tomorrow.  But with my sobriety, I am planning for a tomorrow, so I can do a little planning, jot a dinner date on a calendar, then I don't have to look at it til that day. Baby steps.  Balance is a hard thing to learn and to teach.  That's all for today.  Have a great one!
