Late check-in tonight! Tonight is my favorite night of the week because me and the couple new sober friends I have gathered at one of my meetings go and hang out and talk for hours...at a bar.

A freaking bar. If someone told me five months ago I would be sitting in a bar at midnight drinking Diet Coke and eating nachos I would have laughed their asses out of the room.

But, quite frankly, I think I may have had more fun these past few weeks at the bar being sober than almost all of the previous two years spent in bars being loaded. Or at least those that I remember

Hoping everyone has/is having a wonderful Friday. See ya all back here same time, same place tomorrow. xoxo from DC at 1:03 AM.

Was able to take my mom out for dinner and just spend time talking to her today; it's the little moments that make sobriety so wonderful <3

Today what kind of a person will I be?

A Kind Person

Never look down on anybody unless you're helping him up. ~Jesse Jackson

A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you and were helped by you will remember you when forget-me-nots have withered. Carve your name on hearts, not on marble. ~Charles H. Spurgeon

It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice. ~Author Unknown

Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day. ~Quoted in P.S. I Love You, compiled by H. Jackson Brown, Jr.

Treat everyone with politeness, even those who are rude to you - not because they are nice, but because you are. ~Author Unknown

Never miss an opportunity to make others happy, even if you have to leave them alone in order to do it. ~Author Unknown

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these. ~George Washington Carver

*Touching video of the day- Do something Kind ( notice how each person who saw a good deed being done in turn did a good deed.)



Instead of feeling sorry for yourself this weekend, go make a difference in someone's else life. Self-esteem comes from doing esteemable things. Bless you all!


Prayers for elly40 (illness), medic61310 (strength and a new job), roosta (extra inspiration), nel68 (sunshine), raku (strength), midlifecrisis (strength), trikyriky (strength), deek (sunshine), legend40 (strength), Mrbeagle(good night's rest), Freedom55 (strength)

today is the worst day of my life, i cant sleep because of a crappy mattress so i have continuous back pain and neck pain and hip pain. sobriety on my 60th day sucks. the non narcotic painkillers do NOTHING for me. 900mgs a day does NOTHING for me. i hate these doctors who think this stuff works because it doesnt. i really dont care if i am addict or not, give me something for chtists sake that works.....24 hours sober, right now i dont care, but drinking wont help my pain either so what is the solution?
