Just wanted to post a quick update...
Today is my 90 days!
I'm doing okay, not great but still not drinking. I've recently been diagnosed with vitamin deficiencies and an underactive thyroid so I need to start taking better care of myself
I turned down an awesome job today, a job I wanted because I was afraid of the change, this is not positive behaviour...I'm disappointed in myself
I have bought a cat though...she's a monster but I love her totally and I don't want her to see me drunk, ever

Oh, love your cat and she will love you. 
Please don't be disappointed because you turned down a job offer. Change is hard and maybe this wasn't the right time for a job change. Be kind to yourself.

Thanks everyone
I am proud of my 90 days but I'm kind of scared too, this was the big milestone I was looking forward to and now there's not really another one til 6 months...and that seems a long way away! Maybe I'll celebrate 120 and 150 days too? Is that weird?
I hope you guys are right about the job and I don't live to regret turning it down...it really was a great opportunity...more money for less hours and closer to home but it just didn't seem to feel right...I'd have spent long periods of the day alone and I'm used to being around people so I think I'd have got lonely. I am trying to improve my life but I guess I have to take it slow, one step at a time and all that!

A big congratulations on your 90 days, purplepixie!! 
I think it's great that you're trusting your gut feeling and thinking about the kind of job you'd be happy with. Who knows what might be around the corner......
