“Never regret a day in your life: Good days give happiness, bad days give experience, worst days give lessons, and best days give memories.” – Unknown 5:10am in Alberta, another 24 for me please, and thanks... Today is going to be a darn good day not to drink! |

Good morning, everyone! I’m in for another sober day. Congrats to today’s celebrants and all who are sober today. The neighbors house blew up and caught fire yesterday. He’s a rather big guy. It took four of us to pull him through a window before the fire got going. I’m glad I was sober yesterday. I wish I knew how to upload a photo because it was quite the fire.

Can't see the pic love.....but OMG.....that is terrible and also fantastic that you guys saved your neighbour!!! :hug: s xxx ❤️❤️ |
24 more please :thanks |
Good morning everyone. 7:46am in Indiana. Last night my wife and I had a short conversation with our oldest son's math teacher for a parent/teacher conference. He had been struggling earlier in the year, we made some decisions about how to handle the class this year and next with him. The teacher said he's been a new kid lately. He's also been motivated in his sports, good grades, working out with me in the mornings and overall just seems really happy. His brother started the year complaining about swim, quit for about 6 weeks, and then decided to come back and has been crushing it. His school work really good too. I was laying in bed last night thinking about how they have been different kids the last 4 or 5 months...then made the connection that I've not been drinking for over 5 months. I got teary eyed thinking about how maybe some of the issues they were having was because they had a father who was not in a good place. My sobriety has, even though I'm still doing this for me, has had an incredible impact on them. I had no idea how much I was holding them back just through the emotional sadness they may have been having. Alcohol is so powerful. I'm thrilled that I'm in for the next 24. |
Thanks again everyone! Yep 1New, I'm getting pretty long in the tooth for sure! But there's a lesson in my story for everyone as well. I turned 58 the day I put the booze down for good. What that means is that I drank away a good 40 years of my life, don't let that happen to you! I'm lucky in that I didn't face any "drastic" situations from my drinking, but I still did some stupid things and said many more things I wish I could take back. I love being part of this thread and the people I've got to know and become friends with. It doesn't matter what age you are, but the earlier you quit, the more fulfilling years you have ahead of you. It doesn't matter if you're still struggling or if you have years of sobriety behind you, we're all the same, just one drink away from being a drunk again. And that's one of the reasons I'm here, I need to take it one day at a time, just like everyone else... |

You have given them the gift of being present. :) They know their dad cares about them and is there for them always. That is pretty wonderful. :) :hug: s |

Another 24! |
It’s 6:52 am MST in SE Arizona. I’m ready for another sober day. |
Taking wife skiing and I'll go explore some forest service roads, going to be a long day. Happy sober Friday. |
Great story Noam. In all honesty, I quit drinking not for myself, but for my kids. I wanted to actually "be there" as they grew up into teenagers. In for another 24 hours please at 9:13 am. Best wishes all! |
Another 24 for me please |
howdy all, In for 24. 15:33 France |
