Tomorrow will be 27 months for me.

Just happened to look at the calendar and noticed it.
I spent a good part of the day alone today. Yup, just me and the pup watching the football games.

In the past I would have picked up a large bottle of vodka and wasted a day.
Sat around drinking all day and probably blacked out by now.
Wake up tomorrow very sick and drag my butt to work.

I pondered a while about the way things were.
The one thing that really scared me was the time I stayed home from work sick and then started to drink again in the morning. You know, the whole "hair of the dog thing". I looked in the mirror that morning and said to myself" yah know Bob, you really have a problem now".
And sadly it was at least a month before I strung together a little sober time.
I'm thankful,very thankful.
I hope that anybody that is struggling will look back , take a good hard look at one of your darkest moment while drunk.
Use it against that ole AV and kick this before it goes on any longer.
