First sober birthday in 5 years!

Sunday the 26th is my 26th birthday. This will be my first sober birthday celebration since i've been old enough to drink. I've always went to bar and got wasted with my friends, but this year it's going to be different! My boyfriend and I are going to DC for the day on Saturday. We will walk around, do some shopping, or visit some museums, and get lunch! I can't wait to have a sober birthday that I will remember!

I am 80 days sober today. So so close to 3 months!!

Happy 80 Britt. I'm super glad to hear about your first sober BD.

I still remember mine. Even though I burned so many brain cells drinking, gave away more pieces of it over the years, and am definitely over the middle part of a century the it will stay with you forever. Just like your first Christmas.

Happy Birthday, Britt, and congratulations to you on your first sober one. In fact, this year will have a great big bunch of 'first sobers' as the calendar spins around through your first year sober anniversary. I hope that they will all be everything you hope that they can be.

Congratulations and enjoy. I am guessing it will be your best Birthday in a very long time.
Coincidentally, the 26th is marks my 1 month point so I'll be celebrating it with you.
Great work on the 80 days!
