46 Weeks

As of yesterday, I am 46 weeks sober.

I am out in San Jose this week for a conference - I feel mentally prepared for the onslaught of social events. I have my coping skills at the ready and I know I can always go back to the hotel and work or hit the gym.

I have embarrassed myself at these types of events in the past and I will not be doing that this time.

Keep to your plans my peeps - we can do this.

Congrats on 46 weeks IP - life is so much better nowadays hey - have a good time at the conference, know exactly what you mean about embarrassing yourself at such events I definitely have that tshirt - a pretty large collection !! Satisfying to know that will no longer be the case by sticking to the plan - good to have an exit plan in place if things get a bit much and also keep close to this place should you feel any need to.

Went to dinner and socialized with my diet coke and took the first bus back to the hotel.

Thanks All for the support.

Red Andy - I know we started at about the same time...good to see you still here.

Congrats on staying the course. Enjoy the beautiful weather we're having out here in the Bay instead of alcohol related activities.

That's right mate we did - been a huge amount of change over the past 12 months but most definitely for the better.

Glad to hear you had a good evening - I guess there are plenty of people who aren't doing what we used to do at these events after all !! Should be a much more productive event I would imagine and one that you remember for the right reasons.
