Thumbs up Omg!
Just 7 days away from one year continuous, glorious sobriety, I have been offered (and accepted) a new position with a very nice raise in pay. After muddling through and existing for 12 years hungover, full of shame and regret, I will GLADLY accept this early birthday gift. I am living proof that everyone can do this - don't waste another day. Sobriety = shamelessness and serenity. :day6
