whoo hooo!!

I made it to day 17!!! So excited. I bought a bag of pretty marbles and a clear case. it's nice I put a marble in the face representing another day clean. it is like a little reward at the end of the day and a visual for me. I thought I would share it in case anyone else would like to do this also.

I think that's a great idea....What else are you doing to keep working on your recovery? Congrats on those 17 days...I'd like to see you fill lot's of vases.

Sounds like you're enjoying this whole recovery business, eh? Good for you. Me too. In fact, my only advice would be to plan ahead and buy a bulk quantity of very small marbles. They'll be easier to store as the years roll by.

Great on 17 days keep them rolling , and a lovely idea.
Do you tell people what it represents or are you waiting for the door to open and people be washed away with the force of thousands of glass balls.

Congrats on day 17! Don't want to steal your idea but like the concept so I'm going to buy a calender that I can mark off at the end of every day. Just a little something to remind me of my daily accomplishment.

make sure the vase is strong, under too much weight and pressure, the vase my break.

Keep moving forward!!!
