I passed a test today...

I passed another Contractor's test today, for a new state we will be working in. I've taken and passed many before...but this was the first one I've taken SOBER!!!!!!

I am not celebrating the passing grade, because I have passed many of these tests before, and I have always been hung-over, or half-drunk and hung-over. That was my way of life. I am celebrating because I was sober the night before, I was Sober when I took the test, and I am SOBER NOW!!!!!

It is a major milestone for me. I want to thank this website and everyone that contributes. I want to thank my friends and support group at the AA meetings I attend. I especially want to thank the AVRT program, for giving me the tools to recognize the B/S from the genuine, in others and especially in myself.

And finally I want to thank my wife and my Savior Jesus Christ, for never giving up on me.

Now...on with my never-ending adventure...Life in SOBRIETY!!!

Congrats for passing your test SOBER rdb Something to be really proud of and very inspiring for a lot of us here. I think a lot of the fear that stems from quitting drinking/drugs is that we sometimes believe we won't be able to do the same things we used to be able to do. You've definitely proved this to be wrong,
