You don't need to forget per se, and with a date like that, you probably won't. If counting days makes you anxious, though, or increases relapse anxiety, then don't look at the calendar all the time. Otherwise, don't worry about it.

Just remember, the only time is now, as in "I never now drink/use." Since it is always now, and tomorrow will also be now when it comes, you never drink/use.

Simple, no? :-)
