Thanks everyone for the congrats! It was yesterday the 29th so you got it right, I just chose an odd time but I finished a glass and said to myself, no more. So that's when I chose my sobriety!

One week in, heck yeah, I'll take another 24!

Congratulations to everyone for choosing this commitment! Have a beautiful day

“I once heard a sober alcoholic say that drinking never made him happy, but it made him feel like he was going to be happy in about fifteen minutes. That was exactly it, and I couldn’t understand why the happiness never came, couldn’t see the flaw in my thinking, couldn’t see that alcohol kept me trapped in a world of illusion, procrastination, paralysis. I lived always in the future, never in the present. Next time, next time! Next time I drank it would be different, next time it would make me feel good again. And all my efforts were doomed, because already drinking hadn’t made me feel good in years.”
- Heather King

5:45am in Alberta, today is going to be a darn good day not to drink!

I'll have 24 more please, and thanks...

Kenton- I really like inspirational, simple- practical quotes. Even AA cliches are not so cringe worthy. You know the ones that get repeated..'fake it 'till you make it'. 'let go, let god'....simple conclusions to a great deal of personal growth and thinking.

Same thing with me. I drank my last beer about 7-8 pm on 1/10/18 and also said, "No more!" So that was my new sobriety date.

"Hey,
Don't write yourself off yet.
It's only in your head you feel left out
Or looked down on.
Just try your best.
Try everything you can.
And don't you worry what they tell themselves when you're away.
It just takes some time,
Little girl, you're in the middle of the ride.
Everything, everything will be just fine.
Everything, everything will be alright.

Hey,
You know they're all the same
You know you're doing better on your own,
So don't buy in
Live right now.
Yeah, just be yourself.
It doesn't matter if that's good enough for someone else"
-Jimmy Eat World, The Middle


Another 24 for me! I'm going to finish up this Day 2 strong.

8:24 a.m. here in FL.

Count me in!

I feel like I’m getting into the groove of this sobriety and recovery thing. I’ve been surprisingly productive this morning and, looking forward to getting more done today.

Heartfelt congratulations to today’s celebrants and all who are sober today!
