I Am Working On Myself

One day at a time I work on myself, I'm a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, I started at 14 and am 57 now, I've had 4 surgeries in the past 2 years so I've had to take narcotic pain killers to relieve the pain, they where my drug of choice, Oxy's, percocets, vicodin, anything, and doctors doll them out like Halloween candy around here, now I'm in recovery after having had my right hip replaced on March 21st, I've been off painkillers for a little more than 10 days now, I have craving like hell, but I have a great sponsor and loving and supportive wife who help me as best they can, but being in the game that long and then just stopping, you feel like a fish out of water, every other second you want to jump back in the lake.
