Talking 30 Days!

This is it! FINALLY!!! 30 very LOOOOOOOONG days! My Dad, who has been sober now for 13 years calls it, "30 days, and 1000 nights!" And boy is that the truth! The past 30 days have felt more like 1000 nights, but I've made it!

In the past 30 days, I've learned to do things sober. A very strange thing for me. I've made it to every game, practice, and event my girls have had, and I can remember every one of them! I can remember what happened last thursday on Survivor, and all of my fav shows.

It's been a very long 30 days, and it hasn't been easy at times, but I'm here, and I've made it through it!

Congrats on the 30 days. In my home group when someone gets a 30 day chip we always refer to it as the "30 days and 1,000 nights" chip.

The group I went to a few times didn't do 30-day chips... they did chips in 3-month increments only. Oh well. :P Chip or no chip, I haven't had a drink in 30 DAYS!!
