Hey.  I just thought I would check in with everyone.  I am still sober and very happy about that.  I actually like it.  I'm starting to have a little more confidence so that's always a plus.  I am still feel very overwhelmed with medical bills and those things, but I know that money is an issue for most everyone, so I try not to stress too awful hard.  I think I am at 34 days.  My last drink was September 11th.....how odd.  Thanks for everything!

Good for you. Just wait until you hit 90 days. And having your last drink on 9-11 is not entirely coincidental. As you continue to enjoy sobriety you are going to begin to see things you may not have noticed before. You will begin to tie things together. You will have things revealed to you, and you will have your own revelations. Sounds like your Higher Power has begun to work in you, and taken up residence in a vacant spot. I am very happy for you.

That brings up an odd aside: I wonder how many people began drinking after the stress and uncertainty of 9-11.

Hi Crystal,

It's good to read that you are still sober and feeling good about it.

Well done.

Take care,

Carol

Way to go! It does get better!
My friend and I walk 3 times a week at a local park. The deer we see and just the beauty of the leaves changing is such a blessing! I cant believe how my eyes and mind are so wide open now. The things I took for granted or just plain didnt notice make me realize what a drunken blur I was in!!!
