Today it is good that one of my esteemed classmates recognized my 60 days sober. I don't count days ( at least not much) because 10 yers from now I don't want to be that guy that says I got 10 years sober, like that is some major lifetime achievement.I think that whole thing is rather sad and counterproductive.
As soon as I am secure in my sobriety I want to move on and not think about alcohol anymore as I have done with meth and weed.

It is good because someone recognized me and my small contribution to this forum.

((Fubar)) - I posted on your thread, but congrats!! I was never that much into days/months/years, etc. but I realize it gives the newbies a lot of hope.

Today is good, because I still have my main job, despite shooting off my mouth. I'm in trouble, but so far so good. Going out to do my 2nd job, even though I'd rather stay in bed Recovery has taught me that no matter what happens, I'm going to be okay!

Hugs and prayers!

Amy

What's good today? The sun is shining and it's not raining so can walk the dogs later on. I have no obligations today so will just stay home and clean the house.

I paid off a court fine, and it's my last "legal" fine from my old "crack days" Got lots of work done, spare keys for my car (that cost a fortune!) and came home to my 3 furbabies waiting for me.

Today was more like spring than summer. We haven't heard from Trish(Chiynita) so she's still in treatment, and that's a good thing, because that's where she wants to be.

Hugs and prayers!

Amy

Thx Amy..But that was short lived.

I guess today all that is good is that I am not high. As bad as I am craving right now. I am doin ok. I hope I hold out.

And the best thing about today is I have SR. Because without it. I would have been long out that door.

Waking up snuggled up with my dogs is always a good thing. Watching them enjoy their breakfast makes me feel good too, that I'm taking good care of them - better than I did when I was drinking, for sure.

The good thing today will be going to pk's baby shower this afternoon and seeing her happiness as she unwraps her baby gifts.

And today is supposed to be warmer, a good day to give the dogs a nice long walk.

And, of course, a really good thing is my SR family here whom I love so much.:ghug

Watching Nate and his friend play so well together even though they (or myself) did not get adequate sleep. I usually hit the hay around 9 pm and we were all up until 11:30 pm. for 6 year olds I think that "may" be a tad late. LOL! They are faring better then me and I am very happy I have my friend, coffee, to keep me company.

Its going to be a GREAT day today!

My wife sold her car today and we are now free of that polluting machine that ruins the environment. We live in the big smoke (Toronto) where public transit (TTC) is almost as fast as driving so we rarely need a car anyways.
I am going to take the proceeds of the sale and buy coffee and Splenda. I have a 8 cup a day habit but starting this week I am switching to Decaf.
