7 days sober

At 9 tonight it will have been 7 days since my last drink. I would have bet against myself a week ago. I'm still not always sure what to do with myself, but working extra hours at night seem to help. A month ago I would have had a melt down if my boss asked me to stay an extra 30 minutes. I had to rush home to start my habit/hobby.

I'm looking forward to day 8. Thanks guys, just reading your stories helps me.

WAY TO GO REBEL!

I am on day 3 and I can't wait to be able to say I have been sober a week. You are an inspiration.
