just checking in...

hi all!

i just wanted to check in. it's day 6 for me, and i'm still doing well! even went bowling with the family today (and i won for the first time ever! yes, my tiny children usually stomp on me!!!)

anyway, i've been reading here a lot, and studying my BB, and keeping in close contact with my sponser... and for 6 days now i've woken up and said, "i'm not drinking today." and i haven't! it's spectacular to go to bed and wake up feeling good!

i hope you all are enjoying your weekend wherever you are in recovery... and if you're not in a good place inside yourself today, i'm sending out some extra peace for you...

and thanks again for being here. i for one know i can't do this all alone... and it's such a hopeful thing to know i don't have to with the support here and in my recovery program.

Keep it going

It sounds as though you are already seeing and feeling the benefits of stopping.
It gets even better!

Congratulations on the start to your new life!

6 days! Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!! To me, waking up without a hangover and remembering what happened the night before is the single best feeling.

Hang in there and I will too.
