You Get a Pay Raise!
Hi All,
Three weeks sober tomorrow ( I can say that because I'M NOT GOING TO DRINK TODAY) and I was sitting here have a cup of coffee and paying bills (arg) when I started doing some math.
On average I spent 18.00 per/day drinking ( a bottle of wine + a four pack to hide in the garage... sick!).
**(18 x 7) x 4 } x 12 = 6,048
This was just my weekly maintanence expense. Not to mention nights out with the wife and game day with the boys. Well over 10K in my calculation.
I guess my point is, on top of the health & spiritual aspects of getting sober we all get a raise. Good thing in this economy!
Blessing to all,

I have no clue how much I spent over my long drinking career.
I was a blackout drunk who carried cash to bars.
My AA chair is the most expensive thing I've owned.
But.....it's value is priceless...
Well done on your early sober time...
