Congrats to today's celebrants! I hope we all get through this day sober. My prayers for anyone who is struggling no matter that the reason is.
Delilah, I think the strength your showing right now is phenomenal and, a testament to your commitment to sobriety. An example for us all to follow.

6:05am in Alberta. Today is going to be a darn good gay not to drink, right mangoman? You can do it, one hour at a time if need be...
Another 24 for me please, and thanks....

For me the answer is that I am an alcoholic.
And I need to do whatever it takes to stay sober one day at a time.
In the early days, each time I got sober, that 4/5pm mark of the day was a huge struggle. But rather than feel bad about being in the struggle, I made sure I had other things to do at this time of day until I got more used to not picking up a drink.
It wasn't easy for sure, but we can do it. With practice and patience and self-love.
Thinking of you today.
