Gratitude for today [View all]

I had a using dream last night, I could feel the glass in my hand, could almost taste my chemical of choice. Felt very real.

I popped awake, in surprise, got up, made coffee, fed the inside and feral cats.
Then got my journal and book out.

I'm going to need an in person meeting soon.

But, for today, clean, abstinent and sober.
Which is good
