Day 121: Checking in. I just canā€™t with this day, so disturbing. Well, you reap what you sow, America. I rearranged my zen den to keep sane and busy but had NPR on the radio for the last few hours. Talk about witnessing history in the making. It all feels heavy. Thank goodness Iā€™m sober.

@Fury Wow! Congratulations!

@anon60334405 U need to give urself a break. Of course calling into work sick is not good, but a night without sleep can leave u feeling as bad as if u are sick. Was there something totally essential u had to do at work? If not, then u can give urself a break.

YOU DO NOT SUCK MIKE!! You made the best choice for your daughterā€™s sake. You are a great dad. I hope you get some good rest. Sometimes all we need is some sleep. :sleeping:

Day 45. Alcohol calls my name less and less these days. Iā€™m so thankful for that!

Iā€™ve had a couple times this past week where I needed to drive somewhere at night and I did not have to ask for a designated driver (usually my wife). That is such a big win that most people would not even understand. The ability to be in control of life is the best part of not drinking.

Next goal is 90 days, which is right around my daughterā€™s 26th birthday.

We get it. My daughter has a lot of friends and they keep popping in to the house, and it doesnā€™t matter, I am always sober! So wonderful.

Only day 4 without drinking for me. But Iā€™m here because all you folks with triple digits are inspirational. Iā€™ll get there eventually, but here for today.

#44 down - thought about booze for a bit after my class let out this afternoon. Then realized if i did, i wouldnā€™t make my 7am start time in the morning.
So walked the dog, chatted with the neighbors & went to get sushi. Now pre-bed tv time.
Way better use of the evening.

day 355. I had a pretty good day. Canā€™t say those around me did. Canā€™t say those south of me either. Did alot of helping put out emotional fires as wayside clients were really at eachothers throats today. Iā€™m tired. Iā€™m hungry after seeing the foodies thread. Staying greatful and hopeful. Sending all kinds of love to whoever may need some. You can do this. We are here for you. God bless you all. :v: & :hearts:

p.s. defintely sticking with adorable Lol ya you!!
