Sober birthday
Today I am 45 years old. Sober for 64 days (I actually am not counting, had to do the math). Stayed alone in NYC last night, as I walked to my hotel I thought of all the business trips and nights I spent drinking in my hotel room or at a nearby bar. Can't say that watching reality TV was a great use of my time but at least I have most of the same brain cells this morning that I did last night.

Have a nice day, everyone!

Daisy
