What did you do today to stay sober? What will you do tomorrow?
It's all about ACTION and working a PLAN, right?
Today I read and posted here and I looked up AA meetings in my area. I just wrote down, on a big sheet of paper, that I'm committing to attending a women's AA meeting next Tuesday at 7:30.
Tomorrow, I will read and post here again. I will also start a sobriety journal to keep myself mindful and write down my actions to stay sober. This is a commitment I will remember and follow through on.
Anyone else?

I wish I had some spectacular list of organized activities...but I don't. The high today was 3 degrees Fahrenheit with snow on the way. I made sure I had my errands done by today, so all I had to do was drive the wife to work and pick her up. With that being said, sometimes just being sober is enough for the day. Was I a bit bored? Sure. Not gonna drink over it.

Today is day two. For 24 hrs or so, I kept this site up on my tablet, even thru body rocking shakes. I didn't drink. This morning I read all the new suggestions, went to an ER, got checked out and they sent me away, yeah, OK, I ain't done with this plan. I didn't drink. On the bus I hear someone else talking about an Alano club..my ears sent out the antenna :-) I followed them off the bus and viola' I'm at a meeting.
And I didn't drink.

I had an unusually stressful situation at work today. If I'd been hungover I probably couldn't have handled it.
I really enjoy my job and likely wouln't be able to manage it if I was still drinking. So, I'm thankful for that and it reminds me why I don't drink any more.

Mostly today I enjoyed my life - I posted a little here, went to lunch with a good friend, a little more posting here...music later on...
tomorrow is similarly jam packed with good stuff...
life is good - but I can never forget every good thing comes from one decision I made in 2007 to get sober and stay that way

Today, I'm going to a meeting at lunch, then meeting an AA member for coffee right afterwards. My gf's daughter has a hockey game tonight, so I'll he there as well to fill my time up.
Tomorrow, I plan to read a daily reflections in the morning, read/post on SR, and hit another meeting tomorrow night.
Meetings and readings,
I think it's time to break out the big blue book and wipe the dust off
Good luck everyone on another sober day,

For now, I remember all of the negative consequences drugs and alcohol had on my life, I come here and read and post, and spend quality time with my family that I was missing out on while using.
Tomorrow will probably be a repeat, it's what's working right now.

Today I have been enjoying my time off work, reading and posting here on SR. I've been doing some further recovery reading too.
Tomorrow - more of the same. I'm going to visit a family member in the afternoon then seeing my mum on the evening.
