New Year's Day

Just how fantastic does it feel to wake up this morning without a hangover?
Without any shame about my behaviour last night?
Without having to check my phone for all the messages I may have sent in blackout?

Wow!

Happy 2013 everyone xxx

Well I'm 7 months sober so am pretty used to being hangover free... But New Years day?
That's a first!

I'm so grateful to be sober.

For all those struggling with a hangover, take the leap of faith.
A sober life is worth all those early struggles.
Take it from someone who knows ...

Best wishes to you all xxx

Nice one jeni. Sun is shining here in north UK. Hope it is with you. I highly recommend getting out there for a walk.

Happy New Year from the USA! Guess I am the early bird.

Congratulations to everyone who was feeling the urge but made it through, nice work!

And if you picked up and are feeling bad about it, chin up--it's the first day of the New Year, good day for you to make a change for the better.

I have an awful cold, but no hangover. :-)

I was in great company at midnight. I was sitting with new friends in an AA mtg. I needed it.

You're so right, Jeni. And Stewart, I know what you mean. When I drank in the past, I must have had a little magician following me around, waving his wand over my wallet and making the money disappear. What you all describe is the very definition of unmanageability in my life. Thanks for your remarks and HAPPY NEW YEAR.

It feels great to be hangover free on New Year's Day. Just need to shake this tonsillitis and I'll be feeling on top of the world!

It is a gorgeous sunny day too. Perfect New Year's Day!
