That's because you are sober and enjoying your life, there is a huuuuuge difference, as we know now in hindsight, between sobriety and not drinking...when i was not drinking i was bored out of my skull, i couldnt wait to go to sleep, even sleeping in the afternoons just to kill time...

Sober life is great and there is not enough time in the day, i would say i wish at least several times a day now for the clock to slow down whereas before i would happily wish away days/weeks/months at a time...i am over in the UAE at the moment staying in a Hotel waiting for a job offer, been to the gym, to the pool, read some, coffees by myself...if i was just not drinking, i would not have got on the plane to get here and certainly, if i had, would not have left the hotel room or done any of the other stuff...that's not living and i have no inclination to go back to that or being that person!

Good to hear you are enjoying yourself...really positive post, thanks:-)
