It may not feel like it right now but Day 1 is a good day - day 1 of the rest of your incredibly good sober life. Hang in there, whopper.

The flu can take so much out of you, SoberDave; your energy will return in time.

Welcome to Day 4, TaylorSaint; sleep can be touch and go in earfly sobriety; things should normalize soon.

You are right SoberLeigh----sometimes it does take awhile for our sleeping patterns to return but, trust me they will and do come back.
Hang in there TS

Mondays always come round so quickly never mind- am taking the dog to dog training tonight after work which is always a good laugh!

You sailed through a difficult weekend, mcflurry; well done.
