Not having to worry if I have enough alcohol, will there be some for the morning, what time does the liquor store open, where can I hide it when I do get some....

Peace of mind instead of having a constant feeling of dread and fear

Hard to pick just one, there are so many. But right this moment.. Sweating in the heat at a softball game and knowing it has NOTHING to do with alcohol, just heat. Calmness and peace.

I ate a plate of food. At 5:30. Like a normal person. One good thing about being sober....I can eat if I'm hungry instead of worrying if I eat my pills won't work as well.
