62 days.
This will be my last entry until I return from vacation on 4/30. Things are going great!
This site has been a big help. I found belikejob's tag line inspiring, "I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a girl." Job 31:1 Nice scripture. I must remember that one.
Until my return I will be taking it "1dayatatime"

I am back from vacation. My Sweetie and I had a great time together. My recovery is doing great. I haven't had any temptations to speak of. I have also handled any trvial ones with aplomb. I thank G-d for each sober day. I remember the feelings I had when I was acting out. Never again will I go back to that darkness! The manifold blessings of HaShem are found 1dayatatime.

Woo hoo, 75 days! Me so happy. Things are going well. No urges at all, I feel confident. I have been working more on ogling abstinence technique, not that it is a major issue for me. I simply want to continue my recovery and it seemed like something I could work on. I think I will do more research of the Jewish concept of sh'cha'tat zerah. That could be useful. Still doing it, 1dayatatime.

Today is a busy day at work. Day 76 in recovery. Doing well.
I have an idea. I think that I will survey the journals, if any, of those with the lengthiest recoveries. They must be doing something right, I suppose. I will check the Hall of Fame list and the top of the 100 day challenge list for those with the longest periods of recoveries.

Day 77.
I was just thinking about another positive aspect of sobriety. That is more time and wherewithal to support those we love. I was thinking about my dear wife and how she sometimes needs emotional support, as do we all. If I were distracted by PA junk I might not have time for her needs. Or perhaps worse still, being oblivious to those needs. P is a thief. We mustn't allow it entrance to rummage through our lives.

I had the day off today but had to go to the County offices for some business. I had lunch with the wife and did bookkeeping in the afternoon.
Another clean day, 78. 1dayatatime

Day 81. I'm doing well, recovery-wise. I spent yesterday hauling lumber to the dump, slinging rocks and doing clean up outside. I am tired from that, but worse is the allergies. My head hurts and my eyes are so scratchy and dry. I woke up with a bad case of dry watery eyes, took a Benadryl. I am so dragging today. Now back to work, 1dayatatime.

Day 82. Another day without P or MB. I feel great. I was reading the thread in the GF about the lack of anonymity of this forum. So I did a search of my nom de plume. Apparently 1dayatatime is a popular handle. There is one on some prison forum, another on an eating disorder forum and many others. I did find a link to a thread over on MAPA about the attack thread on me here on this forum last October. What a bunch of losers those people on MAPA are. I smile each day of recovery with the added pleasure of knowing that it irks those that want to see me fall. Nener, nener, nener to them. I'm still standing, 1dayatatime

Day 83. I had some minor whisperings in my mind today about slipping. I quickly put them to rout. Good L-rd Almighty, I hate P! Grrrr.

Day 88. Friday and Saturday the voice was talking to me. I didn't slip. I am ticked off that it still comes around after all this time of sobriety. Grrrr.

Day 89. I had a tough day yesterday. I thank G-d that I didn't slip. But boy was the urge there! I am taking stock right now of why yesterday was such a tough day. I refuse to give up. "Never give up, never surrender!"
Well, it seems I have irked some the SOs in a thread on the GF. They are mean spirited.

Day 90. Today is a good day. It started a little rough because I woke up at 3:30 for no good reason that I can discern. I have had some problems with that over the past few days.
I am keeping the P free faith 1dayatatime.
