Pizza and happiness
 

Feels good to not drink tonight. Instead of rushing my son off to the sitter so I could go to a bar, we went to a pizza place instead. We had fun, played games, and laughed. I found something we could do every week for me it's one of the most wonderful distractions from drinking I have ever had. How could I have chose to drink instead of this for so long? I am almost at two weeks. :wild

((KMC)) - Way to go on your sober time AND spending quality time with your son!!

Hugs and prayers,

Amy

Great post. I have three little monsters of my own, and my favorite thing about being sober is the quality time I've been spending with them. Game nights, spontaneous frozen yogurt outings, evening bike rides ... There's a whole new world that opens up just from being sober. It's a huge motivator.

Good for you! I didn't get sober until my kids were in their teens and regret that cause having so much fun with them now. Take care and have fun!

awesome post KMC - congratulations...sounds like a good night! :)

KMC,
Yes it is great to be able to make that choice.

Congrats on the two weeks, KMC. :c011: And yes, pizza is definitely good.

Congrats on the 2 weeks!

Be aware, pizza is an addictive substance.

Wow- your post really spoke to me! It's been 2 weeks for me too, last Friday I took my boys (8 and 2) to the park and played with them. This Friday we went to the store, then out for dinner and ice cream, then watched the fireflies on the way home. How did I miss all this? How did I think drinking was better than this? I'm so grateful for today, and being clear headed enough to enjoy these moments before they're gone. Congrats on the 2 weeks :)
