Welcome to SR! I live by myself so sometimes it is a struggle not to let that freedom give me an excuse to slip. When I feel the urge, I just keep reminding myself how many good things come from being sober vs giving in and having that drink that leads to so many more.

Hi Lady! Welcome to our family, we are open 24/7. Read, post, read and post some more. Being sober with children is one of the most enjoyable things I have ever experienced! Take care! TF
