feelin pretty good

So.. only 3 days into not drinking myself into oblivion, but what a great couple of days! Mostly because it feels so good not to be sick every morning.
Not stuffing my face to quell the queasiness.
Not waking up in a panic in the middle of the night cuz im gonna feel like crap even more when I wake up for good.
Not afraid of possibly getting a DUI on the way to work.
Thanks to my friends here. I'm on here alot, mostly reading ,but I feel like we are kindered spirits.

Pooky,
Congratulations on three days! The first 3-7 days were the hardest for me. Keep reminding yourself of how much better you feel when you don't drink. Keep posting!

Well done, Pooky! It's about time you joined the game, not just cheering from the sidelines right? This is wonderful news, and you deserve to feel proud of yourself. This sobriety can become addictive!

Awsome! I can relate with the waking up middle of the night, totally stressed out, worried I'll still be half in the bag when I get to work.

Keep uP the great work!
