* Checking in daily to help maintain focus

Welcome! Congratulations on 8 days!! The headaches, mood swings etc will not last forever. I’m on day 23 and it’s definitely easier. This community is super supportive & there’s lots of information. There’s also other Dutch people on here! So you’re in good company. :blush:

I have a confession to make.

I haven’t checked in for 3 whole days. That’s a sad record for me.

Haven’t done the greatest job in managing my life and my marriage.

And yes, I’m still weak.

But I’m SOBER!

I’ll take it!

61…2 months! I made it through day one of the music festival. No thanks to my husband. Long story but he must have been making up for me not drinking. I ended the night though sober free seeing Guns N Roses sing Paradise City. I loved them when I was in Junior High. Guess I’m giving my age range there, lol. There were ups and downs today. I was able to drive us to our place and I remember the whole day. Funny story tho, when I first got there I went to the port-a-potty and a girl came up behind me when I was done after I had already walked to my group…she said “let me help ya” and pulled the back of my dress out of my panties. Hahaha, Yep! That happened totally sober. So anyways…day 2 tomorrow. Picture of Jack White with ‘The Raconteurs’ wearing a Daniel Johnston shirt
