Day 6 completed and looking forward to celebrating a week tomorrow.
I slept another 13 hours today 3am- 4pm. I got bored so went to pub for an hour- not my main local pub but one I frequent and know people won't blink at me drinking lemonade, and that's what I did - a pint of lemonade - normal boring conversation and then home. Feeling proud of myself today!

Don't all you softy southerners drink lemonade in the pub? haha Only joking, good for you!
I must agree with the boring conversation bit though..worked as a barmaid on and off for 20 years...never heard a single interesting conversation between the punters once haha

Congrats!!!!

be careful hanging around the pubs though...is there a coffee shop you can go to or someplace they don't serve alcohol?

Congrats on staying clean another day.

Going into a pub in early recovery is like a toddler playing in the middle of a busy intersection at night. - Except the toddler is safer.

A couple of years ago I decided to do a sober month. I still went to the pub every day but just drunk lime and soda. I'm not going to do that this time but I'm happy I can trust myself once in a while. It does make people I used to drink with scared when I don't drink but that's because it makes them have to look at their own drinking patterns.
