Day Seven

Today is my seventh day sober! One week. I'm feeling great. Starting to sleep at night, and loving waking up sober.


I've only gone longer than a week one time, so this may be child's play for some, but this is nearing a record for me and I'm very proud of myself.

Childs play? I don't think so. As far as detox, perhaps, but there is a whole lot more ahead than you might be aware of. In any event, all the best to you.

Congratulations, Justin!

I'm on day 9. Double digits tomorrow. Perhaps it won't seem too long until we're counting in weeks. But, it's definitely a day at a time for me at the moment.

Best,
ODog

What do you mean there's a whole lot more ahead?

Congrats, Justin! Clear-headed mornings after a sound night's sleep are awesome. It's like Christmas every day.
