Welcome Kerry and congrats on your 5 hours. Coming on here and ready and checking in is a great way to distract and occupy your mind. 
Healing your self and finding new ways to relate to the world, that don’t involve drinking, is such a gift to your kids. I was a binge drinker too and drank for a very long time. It can be challenging to change our familiar patterns, but it definitely can be done.
If you have time and enjoy reading, Annie Grace’s book This Naked Mind can be a good place to start.
