My dad grabbed me a beer without thinking and I put it aside but, FOR ONE SECOND I wanted to just taste it but gave it to my brother. It let me know the alcoholic is STILL here 
sheāll never go away so donāt feed her ass. I decided to opt out of all holiday parties this year and have no guilt or second thoughts on it. My family and friends love to party 
Iām just not there. Iād rather be alone these days or with my girl. Iām seeing her in a new light and have so much love for her. I canāt believe how much time was taken from us because of my addiction. I will forever be grateful for you and @JazzyS

Thank you so much!!! I never thought life could be so fulfilling sober and even when Iām angry or scared I know itāll work out. I miss some old hangs and drinking buddies but, itās not worth my sobriety. No DUIs, no escalated fights, no hangovers, I remember the nights and days!! Itās beautiful

Its an ongoing journey Roxanne, its great that you know your limits and are vigilant ā¦i found the same as i went along that sober life far outweighs any drink thats offered, we will never be cured but that doesnt mean we cant have a happy and fulfilling life, i love what you said about seeing your daughter in a new light and im sure she sees a new light with you too, its beautiful to see and read, im so happy and proud for you, much love

So much love. My angels I just re-read my first post and Iām crying. It seemed all so hopeless. I remember the feeling so well. When you shared your story I knew I wasnāt alone. Now, I love the womenās groups especially the moms groups because itās horrific, funny, and just a brutally honest take on motherhood as an alcoholic mom. But, soo helpful. Sheās my light 
and once you see the light you canāt look away. Weāre both deserving of love and peace. Sooo much love Iām sending your way. 2023 will always be a special year for me. I still listen to Allen Carr too as background noise cooking or cleaning. It helps to constantly hear it

Its never hopeless never, its you thats done all the work ā¦Jazz and i just helped to steer you in the right direction thats what this site is for, its a beautiful thingā¦it makes my heart sing to read how well your doing and that ive had the privilege to be a small part of it. My daughter is my light too, its amazing to see the changes in them once we are sober moms, as you say we all deserve no less, its stopping one thing to gain back everything and more.
I still give Allen a listen sometimes too
Im grateful that you came back to share your story and how well your life is going, thank you, and thank you for love its gratefully recieved, right back at you lovely lady
