every time I mention how many days sober I am I appreciate people congratulating me and telling me to keep up the good work. it is nice. but I also wish that milestones in addiction recovery weren’t still so pinned to length of sobriety/abstinence

yeah yeah I’m 50 days sober who cares. how about the fact that, when I do drink, it tends to be nipped in the bud after two days nowadays instead of weeks or months? how about the fact that drinking has been condensed to a six pack because I’m at the end of my tether, instead of browning out every night? how about my friend who has decided to stop drinking alone, and is actually sticking to that? recovery doesn’t always look like sobriety and I wish it was more normal to talk about that. yknow. when addiction is normal to talk about at all

Upgraded my valet!

My old one was a $10 find at a salvage furniture store, though I never liked how the trousers hung on it. The new one was a marketplace find, and I love the front trousers bar, drawers, and little tray.

Even though my closet is off camera, the valet is a nice way to slow down and enjoy both my dressing routine + my clothes. It also helps with getting an outfit prepped the night before. (And I have a landing pad for the contents of my pockets -- maybe I'll only lose something once every *other* week.)
