Here it is, the swing, some of you have been here with me in the swing talking or texting sometimes solving a problem for me ans sometimes for you but mostly this is where I sit when having to make a life changing decision
364 days ago I sat in this swing wondering if what I had decided was best for me and sugar was even possible for me
You see almost a year ago today I was sitting alone in our living room, sug had already gone to bed and I was having a drink, problem was that it was 3am and Im sitting alone having a drink which wasnt all that uncommon for me in fact more the norm
I remember sug waking up and coming in where I was and saying
'Hillbilly what are you doing to yourself' it was then it all made sense to me that this isnt normal or healthy and wasnt going to be good for either of us so something had to change and now was the time
we talked a while and I didnt make her a promise I couldnt keep but gave her my word that with her help Id do my best to put an end to a life long addiction. Id beaten addictions far worse than this before so I had to keep reflecting on that and telling myself this to can be beat
well to make a long story short after many days sitting in the swing thinking hearing encouragements from friends and with Sugar never letting me get weak or cave in tomorrow marks my as one year clean and sober and with the woman I love and its been awesome
I did it and so can you I wont say its easy but if you need someone to lean on gimme a call, We'll sit in the swing and get through anything together
