Congratulations on two weeks.
I have ten years sober and still stay clear of bars, although I buy my cigarettes at a liquor store. That's as close as I want to get.
I do go to bars because I spent thirty years in them. But by and large I've changed my drinking buddy friends.
It gets a little tedious watching others get drunk.
I heard a saying, once, in AA. Hang around a barber shop long enough and you're going to get a haircut.

I've found a new life now. Bars are boring and I don't want that haircut.
I've spent enough time in bars. I know all too well what they're like and don't need to be reminded. I've lost interest. And spend my time enjoying life and have done away with my old life.
I don't feel like I'm missing a thing.
