Good morning soberfriends - the joys of waking up sober
Hello soberfriends
So yesterday I had a health freakout because I thought my stomach had improved and it hadn't, anyway I went to the doctors and they reassured me that for people who had thrown up as often as I had It will be a few solid months before serious progress is made.
With that news I'm feeling a lot better, today, just need to change my diet and be a bit more sensible.
Anyway, it is 7am where I live and I just wanted to say that waking up without a hangover never gets old. It's simply wonderful. I'm going to have some fruit and a cup of tea and then I'm going to go for a swim and read a magazine. And that sounds wonderful. After that I can do what I want, why? Because I didn't drink, which means I get to enjoy the whole day feeling well and being able to enjoy life.
Not too long until I'll be sober for a month as well, which will be amazing.

I agree. Isn't it wonderful?
Amazing how something so normal for most people seems like such a revelation and joy for us who've been abusing ourselves so long with alcohol. Shows how crazy it is!
It's truly one of the best things about sobriety and a continuing motivation for me.
Keep it up!

I am with you. I am sitting here in my hotel restaurant, drinking water and lemon. I am on a weekend getaway to NYC with my beautiful daughters. And I am rested, and marveling how the thought of drinking repulses me.
I am happy you are doing so well, and I hope to flllow your lead.
