Haven’t been on here in a while but just noticed it’s 900 days today and wanted to check in.
900 days of freedom, 900 days with no hangover, 900 days of growth and becoming who I was meant to be. Every day is not easy but its so worth it. Hope everyone is well! :blush::blue_heart:

May I join y’all?

I haven’t posted a lot lately; I am remote schooling my six year old and simultaneously taking care of my other little boy, and I feel like I am holding on by my fingernails most days. It is stressful, isolating, frustrating, overwhelming…and it is something that I get to do. I get to do it because I am sober. I wake up clear headed and present - and even the hardest days are so much better than the hell I lived in active alcoholism.

A lot of you have heard me quote something my old sponsor told me early in sobriety. “If you play your cards right, your kids will never know you as a drunk.” My boys were two- and four-years old at that time.

Thanks to all of you, my recovery program, the dear friends I have made in sobriety, and my higher power, I am now 900 days sober - after drinking heavily for over twenty years. It wasn’t that long ago that nine days seemed unthinkable. I didnt know how to live…how to exist…without booze.

My older son is six and a half now; my baby turned five yesterday. By the grace of God, they do not know their Mama as a drunk. They don’t remember… and I know that is not a chance I will get again. I am forever grateful - while they dont remember my drinking, I know that I can never forget.

Thanks for helping me get here, one day at a time…

Yeah Holly!!! Trying times these are, but definitely easier sober, though I don’t feel like easy should really be used this year to describe anything.

Thank you all so much for the kind words. Many of you have been with me since I washed up at TS, still shakey and hungover and frightened. Your love, acceptance, and support has meant the world…to me and to my family.

I love y’all so much!
