One good sober thing is I love to get up and go to a yoga class when I've been sober the day before -for starter I actually attend and I sweat less and have better balance.

I didn't humiliate myself or others last night.

I woke up this morning at MY address.

Waking up to the sound of the birds, feeling peaceful instead of waking up with a feeling of doom.

Waking up sober on a summer friday morning and enjoying the sounds of songbirds, heading into a sober weekend, planning a long trail run with friends and fun activities I'll remember because I wasn't drunk.

Lying on my rug in the heat of the sun wearing shorts for the first time this year and feeling *happy*.

being on the road for work and getting to the gym, running, waking up early and clear-headed to get a head start on the day...

waking up refreshed and sober and hopeful, walking to work on this lovely, HUMID day...hearing the birds chirp, the squirrels and rabbits playing, watching the birds soar and hearing the small creek....feeling the HEALTHY sweat drip off my head into my eyes. Being able to clear my head of the worries, negative nancy chatter and crap before starting my day.

yup. this is the life I want.
