What did you do today that made you thankful for your sobriety?
My alarm just went off, but I've been up for almost 2 hours now. It's Saturday. I hadn't done that in years~just made some coffee and about to get to a 9 am meeting after I clean myself up.

I keep smiling while listening to music while walking down the street... I don't know what's come over me.. it's being a few month's sober and getting unexpected burst of happiness. I kept thinking "other people sober seem happy, why not me?". Then realised it was a case of "be patient young jedi, it will happen". Glad I got here and reading this thread.
Wow great thread!! Love the positive! Well today is just starting but I did wake up at 6, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, which never would've happened when drinking, most especially not on a Saturday morning. And yesterday I was able to patiently and productively focus on my work all day and get every single thing done that needed to get done before going home for the weekend. That never would've happened when drinking either!

I woke up sober on a Saturday which pleased me in itself.
Then went out early to the shops, without worrying bout being over the limit.
I enjoyed the early morning quiet and sunshine.
Then took my son for a walk in the woods and for ice cream.Normally at 4.00 I would be rushing to get home to open wine.
Just small things but each mean so much to do them sober.
Happy sober weekends everyone.x

Woke up this morning at 5 am and in a good mood. I work weekends so not being hung over and grumpy is still amazing to me.
Hooray for sobriety!
PS: Having money to spend is a huge plus. The old days I was nearly broke and desperate for my next paycheck.
