80 days, working on a whole summer of health and freedom
According to my counter, 80 days of freedom and $800 saved so far!
Life is opening up, like a door swinging wide. I've accomplished more in the last couple months than I have in the past year. I've cherished the time with my college kids home for the summer, with no shameful regrets and wasted weeks. My husband and I are reconnecting like in the early days of our time together.
So much joy forfeited before.

Exactly, Jules!
I averaged a bottle of wine a day at about $10 with tax, etc. (I kept Monkey Bay of New Zealand in business.) That doesn't even count, though, the ones I poured out in frustration, or the times I drank 1 1/2 or 2 bottles, plus all the driving and shopping and hauling of bottles around town. But $10 a day is a nice round number of bare minimum I know I"m not spending. Sickening to think of it.
Sometimes I imagine what the pile would look like, if I gathered all the bottles I drank in just the last year or so. What a sight to see.
Also the thought that every bit of it was filtered through my poor liver,
My liver and I are incredibly grateful to have stopped the madness.
