How did I manage to....

How did I manage to....

MAKE IT 6 WHOLE MONTHS SOBER???!!!

Side note , I even managed to go to a Zac Brown Concert Friday night and had beer spilled on me , yet walked away unscathed..Riled up with a screaming AV , but unscathed...

What a ride...Lets see if we can make another 6 hours , turn into 6 days , into 6 weeks into 6 more months...

How did I do it?? Hmm... 1) Can't get the image of STEVE outa my head(some folks here may know what I am referring to)...

2) And , the withdrawal symptoms I went through I wouldn't wish on anyone...I swear , felt like death..Thought I was gonna see the light many times..

Any time I crave a beer , the beer turns to fear (hence my user name)..

I am just hoping and praying to stay the course...

Excellent work, a half year sober is quite an accomplishment. Keep up the good work!

I've been thinking a lot about going to shows and concerts sober. Haven't been to one since sobriety.

Exactly LBrain! lol ..

Yeah , I found that concerts can be a REAL eye opener....

"Ohh , co'mon...It's a Zac Brown Concert! Everyone has a few beers watching Zac , especially when he comes on with "Chicken Fried!" ...

Not sure how I said "No way in Hell!" , but I managed to say "No way in Hell!"
