Another 24 hours for me please on my third day waking up hangover free. But my sleep hasn't been good. Besides the withdraws of sweating like crazy while sleeping. It's been hard to sleep and my sleep for me on my third day has been a short one. The first night I slept sober but still hangover little I had a long sleep 10-12 hours. Second night hard to fall asleep and but got 10 hours of sleep and could of slept longer felt like. Not last night hard to fall asleep and only got 3 and a half hours of sleep.

Not anymore or evermore! I'm smiling because my life feels so rejuvenated and worth living because I'm sober and able to make better decisions.

I hope all of you struggling today find inner strength to realize you are worth it!

Still have your sobriety and that is awesome.

Glad you're okay and your home as well.

Hope you're sleep is restored soon.

I am an alcoholic and an insomniac. I finally figured out after all these years that better to have to deal with only one thing now than two.

I feel when my spiritual, physical, mental and emotional are better, my sleep will be too.

Let's celebrate Almond Buttercrunch today, since today's actual food of the day is not an appropriate item for this forum.

Also, the food of the day is coming to a close, it will soon be a year that I've been posting them and soon they will start to repeat. I'm not a good one with monotony.. Maybe I will find another food-related daily post.

There are 5,639 people in the U.S. listed on whitepages.com with the last name ‘Almond’.

Chocolate manufacturers use 40% of the worlds almonds (2008).

California produced 998 million pounds of almonds in 2004. The largest crop on record was in 2002, with 1.084 billion pounds.

It takes more than 1.2 million bee hives to pollinate California’s Almond crop (over 550,000 acres).

Chocolate manufacturers currently use 40 percent of the world’s almonds and 20 percent of the world’s peanuts.

These numbers are crazy out-dated, almonds are now used in such large numbers that deforestation is becoming a concern, mostly from almond milk consumption. And don't even get me started on the plight of the bees....

Have a great sober day, everyone. I know I will.
