I see my bi-line is “Making Healthy Decisions for my Best Life.”
I chose that. I should be committed to that. I thought I was. I exercise, eat healthy, don’t smoke or do drugs and drink alcohol in moderation. Pretty squeaky for a woman of retirement age.
And then I got an eBook, which I had recommended to a friend, and started reading it myself. Quit Like A Woman by Holly Whitaker.
I often go a very long time without alcohol, and it is usually a social visit that pops the cork. I live in wine country in B.C. and everywhere I look, the orchards are being ripped out and burned to make way for vineyards. I cry when I see another orchard flattened. I would rather have fruit than wine. I am now fully conscious. Knowledge is power. Just as I don’t consume added sugar (white death), it is time to remove alcohol (liquid death) as well. It won’t be hard, but my friends will wonder what got to me. I hope my healthy glow says it all.
