4:30 am
I woke up in the middle of the night, checked my alarm clock and it was 4:30am. I felt a great wave of relief when I realised that I was feeling quite OK: When I was drinking I used to wake up at this time feeling rubbish, sick and hungover, telling myself that I should have known better... I often lay awake for an hour or so and just couldn't get back to sleep feeling awful. This time I just dropped back to sleep with a sense of calmness and happiness.
It was a nice extra that this happened to me on my 90th (or 91st - not sure) sober night. Things are looking up and I am grateful for every reminder of my recovery.
