Almost Didn't Notice!

Well I hit 9 months today! I didn't even realize it until I wrote the date down at work. I remember those first 3 months I counted down the days until I hit my next milestone (and usually struggled when I got there), but now it seems that my sober lifestyle is just the norm for me now, and I don't even think of the milestone until it hits.

It feels wonderful to now be comfortable and happy in my new shoes:-)

Thank you all at SR for being here for me on a daily basis. I don't post a ton, but a day doesn't go by that I don't spend some time reading here.

Thanks again everyone!

Congratulations,

I love the fact you are now comfortable in your sobriety and post to let us know. I am chasing down that first milestone of 3 months.

9 Months is great Dolly.

It does get easier after a few months.

I don't think about drinking often, but I do still come to SR almost every day.

Congratulations on many more SOBER days!
