Mizz, you are a shining light for all of us. You have a great way of expressing yourself, that was a good post.
I am so very glad you're starting to reap the benefits of sober life. I wish I could gift that to every person who comes here with a drink problem because it's almost indescribable the difference between the inner comfort level of long-term sobriety vs that horrible first month or two.
It keeps getting better.
Huge congratulations on Seven months from me and one of the fledglings and a rather bothersome crow.
Crows are like AVs.
