Great to have you here Mike.
If youre looking for any books to read to help, I found Alan Carr Easyway to stop drinking has really helped me reframe how I look at alcohol.
Welcome here @Mike_Jannetty and congratulations with your sober days. This app is a great tool. You’ve got a lot to work for: wife, kids and don’t forget…yourself!
I hope to read you here often!

Hey mike! Welcome and congrats on your sobriety thus far! Glad to have you here 
Congrats on the progress. I’m on day 4 myself and so far so good but like you I’ve tried before and failed. For the first time I’m doing the meeting route, 1st meeting last night and believe it’s going to be the key for me. Good luck reaching day twleve tomorrow!!
