Another AF 1st: Baseball Game

Wrigley Field

Cubs vs. Cards Game June 4, 2022

CUBS WIN! 6 -1.

802 days AF and still having “firsts”.  I went to my first baseball game  AF with my son this weekend ⚾️🏟 Mother’s Day Gift!

For non-Americans, last call for alcohol is the 7th inning and the 7th inning sponsor was Bud Zero. What a hugh culture shift! 💯 Now it is not lost on me that Budweiser wants to make $$s, but they are listening to consumer demand. 👏👏👏 Did I have one? No, but the choice was available to me. 

Were people still binge drinking all around us. Yes.  Did it bother me? 🤨No. Would this have been different experience 700 days ago? Yes. Because 700 days ago I was a different person with new neural pathways.  Would I have been tempted back then? Maybe. 🤷‍♀️

Did I have romanticized thoughts earlier in the day about having a beer at the ballpark? Sure did.  Did I recognize these for what they are, just thoughts? Yes. 👍 Did I play it forward if I did have a drink? I did.  Did I have a drink at the game? No, because I didn’t want to feel like 🤢🤮 today. 

This is a journey and on this Sunday morning, I’m awake at 5:30 am with no hangover. No hangxiety! I have clear memories made with my son that I will treasure forever. ❤️

Did the Cubs Win? YES! ❤️💙🤍

I’ll tell you what’s helped me my entire life. I look at baseball as a game. It’s something where people can go out, enjoy and have fun. Nothing more.
