When I first got sober almost 11 months ago.. I thought my life wouldn't be the same and I missed my friend in the boozing. But, since I have gotten sober my life and my relationships have improved 100 fold.
I never wanted children because of the type of drinker I was. Now at 37... I am contimplating having children for the first time in my life and I can not believe how happy that feeling makes me. I am excited.
Find your excitement and center in soberity. It is there. I promise.
