I forgot to update yesterday, oops. I had thoughts of drinking and they drove me crazy for a few minutes but I found something to busy myself with and it passed thankfully. I guess those will always come and go. Reminded me that I need to stay constant in my recovery and not get complacent with where I'm at.

I got paints, brushes and canvases for Christmas so when I started thinking about alcohol I just went to my room, shut the door and got them out. Hadn't painted since high school, almost 5 years ago and it was really great. I need to practice more but I'm happy with what I got done last night.
