    Hey Friends!

    Hi guys! I just wanted to drop in and say hi! It’s been a long time since I posted. But I am happy to announce that I have 1 year and 9 months sober.
    I hardly think about it anymore. My life is good, I am still surprised sometimes at how hard it used to be. I still get crippling feelings of deep shame when I think about how much I used to drink. Now, when I think about alcohol, I think “oh god no, that is bad” and I go about my life. Sometimes it’s hard, but not very often at all. I no longer fantasize about the occasional cocktail! Thinking about one drink just scares me so bad that I know I would wake up at 3am with devastation and self hatred. So I just wanted to pop in and say I’m doing well and I miss you guys!
    Day 1 again 11/5/19
    Goal 1: 7 days :heartbeat:
    Goal 2: 14 days :happy2:
    Goal 3: 21 days :happy2:
    11/27/19: messed up but back on track
    12/14/19: bad doozy but back on track

    One day at a time.

            Nursie nice to see you. Great to see that your still sober. Just remember not to take that first drink. I know the feeling. I had a 7 year quit which I blew because I thought that I could just have just one. But I can't. And now I am at day 16 and I know now that AL can never enter my life again. I want my 7 years back but I got to work at it to get it back in 7 years.
            I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.

            Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.

            Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.
