Good morning, all.

Sadly, I gave into the struggle and had an M fall last night. Oh well. Clean eyes though.

Sticking to my gedarim regarding leisurely Internet use when no one is around. Not going to get into a rut again.

Hello, all.

Thankfully, I had a clean day yesterday with no post-fall downward spiral. Keeping my guard up.

Hello, all.

Thankfully, yesterday was a clean day. I am working on increasing my resolve to refrain from P&M. It can't be an option.

The day count alone is an insufficient assessment of one's progress. A day is an either-or. Either you are 'on track' or you 'had a fall'. That doesn't capture the smaller wins. The amount of times that one said 'no' or that one stuck to boundaries/gedarim to avoid being triggered in the first place. I have far more wins than I have falls. Today, I can report two weeks since looking at P.

Good morning and a gutten chodesh.

Expressing gratitude to Hashem for another clean day yesterday. My plan is to keep my guard up and stick to my gedarim.
