Checking in at 44 days clean and sober

I just wanted to pop in and say Hi and thank you all for always being a keystroke away.
I lurk and read a lot, I don't post too much.
I'm heavily involved with AA meetings and plan on picking my sponsor very, very soon.
That and my newfound relationship with God, reading here, and support from my new AA friends and a few others has helped me stay sober and clean for all this time.
Being clean and sober is my priority above anything else and this new life is incredible. I have never known such peace and simplicity.
Not every day is amazing and I have struggled many times, but I just don't drink, I just don't pick up and I pray and I attend my meetings and I get through another day.
Whoda thunk it?

Thunking is awesome. Doing is the axis of awesome- which is what you are about. Doing with a plan. I also use a counsellor and a psychologist to help me work out me (my professional friends).
AWESOME AND THUNKS.

Thank you friends.
I'm planning on visiting, posting and offering support much more often and reaching out for some too.
Oh and I've decided I need some commitment and responsibility in my life and have decided to bring a dog into it.
There's a tad of anxiety and change is unsettling but I believe he was placed in my life for a reason.
God has a plan and I've missed having a dog.
44 days ago the thought of being responsible for a dog was ridiculous. It took everything I had to feed and take care of my cats. But I want a dog. And so I'm bringing him home next Saturday.
