A First in Years

I had a sober girls night tonight. We went to dinner, it was delicious. I ordered iced tea. We went back to my friend's house, and she ordered the Rousey fight on PPV (not really my thing but she's so pumped about it I got into it too).

We had a great time. Lots of laughing and joking. She knows I'm getting sober, so she bought fruit and popcorn and my nightly drink of choice lately- hot peppermint tea.

It was nice. And genuinely fun. And I may wake up tired tomorrow because we stayed up too late talking, but I won't wake up hung over.

So that's a first in a long time.

Fab, sounds fantastic, very happy for you!

I'm sure someone said something about "laughter is the best medicine", I reckon that's about right.

Good work!

Thanks everyone! It was a lot of fun. I was in a great mood all day, because I knew I wasn't being artificial.

Some just can't seem to find it in sobriety.
Good to hear that you are on the solid sober road.
If alcoholic,
it is an easier one to travel.
