For me?

Hangover and guilt free mornings. Definitely better sleep, and my husband has one less thing to worry about. Our relationship has improved immensely and we have become closer. He's proud of me reaching 60 days this past week.

Mostly, if I mess up or really screw up bill payment, or make gross mistakes onstage, it can no longer even be a suspicion that it was brought about due to drinking. I own my mistakes, and that has taken away a huge amount of stress between hubby and me onstage. 9 times out of 10- they were legitimate mistakes, but now there is no question.

I am also in a away enjoying (maybe not the typical use of that word) comparing my "before" and "after" life... I was swigging the last drops of a Sprite Zero bottle a few nights ago and remembered the sneaks into the kitchen to guzzle whatever I could grab without getting caught. All that sneaking and hiding (which is a form of dishonesty too) are things of the past and reminders of more negativity drinking brought to my life and are now gone.
