Day 50
When I started this journey to sobriety back in July, I marked off every 10 days on my calendar to make it easier to count my sober days.
When I got to day 60 I stopped. Day 60 will be my daughter's 17th birthday. My beautiful daughter who loves acting and singing. I went to her play on July 27th. A play she worked SO HARD on all summer long and was VERY proud of...I was so hung over at her play and I thought I might vomit in the audience (thank god I didn't). The night before the play was the last time I drank.
When I saw that day 60 would fall on her birthday (9/24) I thought it would be a great milestone to hit. Deep down I didn't think I'd be able do it. But here I am at day 50 and her birthday is only 10 days away. And I will definitely be celebrating day 60 and her 17th birthday sober. It feels really good.

Good morning. Congrats on your 50 days of no booze. Good for you😃 today is my youngest. Child 26 birthday. And my 133 day of no booze. Made me feel good to hear her say I'm proud of you daddy. . and you know what? I'm proud of me too. Wont get to see my kid today cause they have me working OT . she understands I still was able to send her a 100 bucks . which I wouldnt have had if I was still boozing. So yes very happy she is going to have a sober mommy for her special day. ✌

Congratulations on fifty days! That is awesome. And you've got some milestones to count your sober days. I think that's important so we never forget.
I quit on Christmas eve.
Best to you and your family.

I know it is not really funny but it is a bit funny to picture you hung over and nearly vomiting at that play. In any event, congratulations and perhaps years from now you and your daughter can have a giggle about this.
