Merry belated Christmas to you all . I had another sober one . This is my fifth Christmas with out booze . It was the very best yet . I did get some super nice gifts , I mean off the chart nice , but what I am here to talk about is my mental state of mind . Five years ago my first xmas sober was nice . I did have some anxiety issues of how I would deal with things and what it would be like . I was really worried about dealing with some people I usually used booze to deal with . Those worries were not necessary , every thing was fine .
That first xmas I also had to deal with reflex memories and thinking .Reflex thinking of booze . When you do something over and over again it will come to your mind at times . I had to learn that it was just a reflex and if I did not romanticism and promote these thoughts everything was fine .
This xmas I had no anxiety and no reflex thinking . I have learned to not worry so much . Most of the time the worries are of things that never happen . I lived in the moment and enjoyed every bit of my holiday weekend .
Love you , Jaybird
