Day 16 it gets better by the day

On Day 16. Staying strong. Feeling better mentally and physically. Emotionally is still in the works. No urges anymore, but staying busy in the evening to get my mind off.

@l0nely, I have been staying busy cooking dinner for the family, going on the walk after dinner, reading on SR, watching TV, and eating lots of ice cream.

I love cooking for many years, but slacking for the past couple of years, my kids love their daddy's cooking.

on to Day 18, leaving for vacation on Saturday morning. I haven't been on a vacation without a drink in over 20 years. But I am ready for this trip with my wife and kids. Looking forward to spending quality time with the family sober.
