Oftentimes when I look back fondly on old drinking days I find what I’m really missing is that point in my life. I had friends, was fit and thin, had a good career. But, the booze ruined all that.

Sober for a year now and I have a healthy family, no fighting between husband and I surrounding drinking. Have a beautiful baby girl that strangers often refer to as a living doll. Starting to gain friendships again and am slowly but surely losing the baby weight. Weeded out unhealthy family relationships. Things are beginning to look up.

A new career will come in time and I’m sure I’ll do better then I did in the past due to no booze.
