two months yesterday!

it was my birthday (sober) yesterday. i cant tell you how good i feel being sober. the world is now so much more beautiful. i had a phone call at work yesterday. it was one of my old drug dealers. he said he had coke and mushrooms for me to try for free. i know the game he was trying to play on me. but with two months sober now i was able to tell him NO! that was something i wasnt able to do a few months ago. i also told him dont call me anymore. im done with all of that crap. the time im spending with my son now is so much better. daddys not hung over or strug out on drugs. and i actually have a savings account now. im saving up for another house to buy. lost the other with the divorce. now being sober i have goals and ambition again. but i dont think about what if? i think one day at a time. my familly has really noticed a change in me and so have my co workers. im not hiding inside a bottle or a glass pipe now. i know life will thow some fast balls at me. but now i can deal with those without running away and just dealing with them. life happens and we all must take whatever cards we are delt. i know i havent been around here much but with being a single father and going to work and meetings its hard to make some free time. but i will try to make more of an apperance for now on.. thanks jason

Congratulations on 2 months clean and sober, Jason!

I remember your posts when you were strung out and frightened - and I can't tell you how proud I am of you.

Thank you for sharing!

Sixty days sober = two months sober....

Hi Jason, :mock

A wonderful job...being sober two months, working, & being a single Dad! You should be very proud of yourself. :comfort

Keep working the program and let us know how you do. Such a weight must be off your shoulders!!!
