8 months and I hardly noticed!

So yesterday was 8 months sober for me. Although I do feel a sense of accomplishment when I think about it, it's now getting to the point that I don't think about it that much, and I find that to be the bigger accomplishment!

Before I would look towards each milestone and concentrate hard on getting there (counting the days) so I could breath a sigh of relief.

Now I am more relaxed in my sober lifestyle that I am just LIVING it. Finally living my life, and loving it!

Thanks to all here at SR for my daily dose of support and understanding.

Happy New Year!!!

Congratulations Dolly, I too want to be in that happy position, to quote toffee,

A great place to be, a place where you are living as though alcohol had not been invented.

Wow, what a place to be.

Happy New Year x
