I woke up at 6:30am and dropped my husband at the train station. Got my youngest kids ready for school. Stay awake to clean the house and make the beds. Did a little laundry. Took an hour walk then worked out at home. Cooked chicken corn soup and Lo mien for dinner.

I am having a family member over tonight and they're spending the night here.

got out of own bed on a Saturday morning at 6:30a.m.

Today I didn't have to sneak out of someone else's bed,
grab my clothes, head out the door, without waking them.

I went to an AA meeting (definitely wouldn't have done that when drinking lol) and now I'm whitening my teeth- I stopped caring about stuff like that when I was drinking heavily!

Beat a computer game I had been playing for almost a year but couldn't focus enough to finish when I was drunk.

Took some pepto-bismol for an upset stomach NOT caused by drinking.

Didn't think of how much (or little) booze I have in the house as soon as I open my eyes.

I still don't yet. What's the point when I just mess it up again at the end of the day?
