Money saved!

Earlier in the month, I explained I worked in a smoking bar. I quit smoking and drinking at the same time. I couldn't think of what to do when a patron offered to buy me a drink and someone on here suggested I collect the money and donate instead (I'm sorry, I forgot who had this awesome idea)
I drank 1 beer on a Sunday, then 2 the next Monday, I went the rest of the week dry, then fell so hard off the wagon the next Sunday. So hard it hurt. Emotionally, physically...well I have 9 days back again and what I did was in addition to the money people would have bought me alcohol with, I put a dollar in each day I didn't drink. I am pleased to announce I have saved 30 dollars so far.
I will be donating the money to the county wildlife rehab center. They specialize in rehabbing eagles and other raptors and it will feel good to know that my little donation helped a good cause.
Going strong!!!
