Smile Miss my dad

It's fathers day and I miss my dad he passed away 16 years ago and I still miss him everyday. I had a good day though. I did not use. We had my boyfriends kids over for ribs and stuff out on the grill. It was beautiful outside and I actually felt good. I wasn't tired. I didn't have the urge to use and that in it self makes it a good day.
One day at a time. That's all I can do...

Yeah it was tough seeing "fathers day" everywhere yesterday, fb was full of updates and photographs!!

My dad passed away a few years back, he died an alcoholic, never admitted he had a problem, and never admitted alcohol caused any problems in our family despite my parents ending up divorced.

The one thing I could take from the day was knowing that I was now Sober, I get to write and choose how my life unfolds in dealing with my own addiction.

The fact all you guys are sober is a great thing to have achieved, and in some way I'm sure it's a testament to the part your Dads played in making you who you are
