I went home instead

I had a huge exam this morning. In the past I would hit the bar right after. Today I am grateful that I took a different route (not driving past bar) and came straight home. Everyone in class after the exam went out for drinks together and I walked away. It has been hard these first 2 weeks of sobriety, but I am determined to hang in there.

That's an awesome choice you made. You chose a better way of completing your exam, staying sober.

Cloud,

I'm so happy to hear you took your exam. I know you were worried about it. I'm so proud of you! Your doing great. I'm sure you did a fine job on it. No alcohol needed!! Way to go.

Good for you. Each time it will become easier and easier. It sure is hard in the beginning, but know that won't last. Congratulations!
