$2.00 beers
Permalink  
 


Well I went to a local pro wrestling event tonight.  Got there and seen behind us was a small window with a sign $2.00 beers, now the old me would have had probably 10 of them and I did think to myself that price isnt too high but that was it, watching others guzzle them down made me sick.  So instead I sipped my diet pepsi and had a great night.  Awesome thing was at the end they called 2 numbers that matched in the program and one was 14 and we won 2 free tickets to next months show.  I feel so blessed to be given another chance completely clean and sober.  9 days today :) Thank you higher power and all the support from people like you all over the world!

Good job Steve. Generally, you have decent AA tools at your disposal or you wouldn't have accumulated the months long stretches of time that you have. Remember the things you were going to do different though. I hope you are calling your sponsor daily and also before an after events where you know you will be in the presence of alcohol. Make yourself accountable.

Sober entertainment events are great when you used to see them as excuses to get loaded in the past!!
I always thought to myself, "Wow, that's what I used to look like, sound like and be like?!"
It is sickening to see people guzzle booze!!
Glad you're working a program, and won free tickets to boot!!

IF those were $2 Micro brews I would have been in a world of hurt. LOL. 12 days for me. Good job.....A) Drink, B) No drink, C) Controlled Drinking...NOT. We cant do it. Course if you set your limit to 10 that would be controlled......just kidding. Missed my meeting tonight so on the boards to do a little AA.
