Feeling like a 360..
 

Well I did my first volunteer activity at my daughters school. Never did before because didn't want teachers/other parents smelling the booze on my breath. Besides....hanging around all those sober and involved moms made me feel like the worst mom (course it was their fault, not the 6-8 glasses of wine I was consuming).

Now that I am sober, I can't wait to do more of this. All the kids went running up to thei moms so excited they were there....INCLUDING my daughter to me:-). Felt so good to see here so proud and happy I was there!! Think I am actually going to join the PTO next year! Lol....never thought I would see the day:-)

Awesome Dolly!! :You_Rock_

Way to go, Dolly! That is an awesome first step!
So glad you had a good time, I'm sure your daughter was thrilled!

That's so awesome!!!

It is nice to not have to worry whether we can or cannot do something that involves our children that is dependent upon how much alcohol we had consumed. That is how I feel when my son is making plans when I may have to provide transportation. I'm a sober driver at any time on any day :)

Go you Dolly A!!!!

That's such a lovely story, thank you so much for sharing x

What a great post!

Yay Dolly! I teared up over this! So awesome!

Thanks all! It was such a great morning, and certainly will help keep me motivated.

Doesn't it feel good? I'm glad you shared the great news. :)

Nothing beats the huge smile, the love, happiness and pride in a child's twinkling eyes when they look at us.

Great job!

You not only rock!!! you :banana: rock!!!

I started volunteering a few days into sobriety for a charity shop, I'm back there tomorrow and I can't wait.
