Hi Everyone! I made it to 30 days! There have been a few times over the past few weeks where I have been tempted...thinking to myself that "one glass" won't hurt you. I am glad I made the decision not to listen to that voice. It feels so good to wake up the day after Christmas without a hangover and well rested! My prayers go out to those who are struggling. This is not an easy road. One day at a time..one hour at a time.

Hi Waterscapes...we are right there together. Today is 31 days for me. I too feel so much better. I had the same urges and resisted and feel proud of myself. I actually enjoyed the holiday much more this year sober. Last night was a true test at the in-laws and my Father-in-law is elderly, and in a very bad mood. Very rude and trying. Some folks were drinking beer, wine and shots and I thought for a moment if I only have a glass of wine I can handle him. But I didn't, I just excused myself right after dinner and came home. I felt guilty because I didn't help clean up as I normally do, but it was either get the heck out of there or have a drink. In the end I had to make the right decision for me. Hang in there, we can do this together!!!

5 weeks for me this Saturday.
It was a bit of a milestone changing from 'days' sober to 'weeks'........
The next one will be months!
Keep up the good work.
