    How I know I'm ready;)

    I just wanted to share a couple of things that happened today that really helped me realize I'm on my way to sobriety, and HAPPY about it! I have been AF for 3 days, so last night I went to bed nice and sober I was rudely awakened at 1:29am by someone text messaging my cell phone. I thought, 'who the heck is that at this hour?'...I checked it, and it was a good friend of mine drunk texting something silly, and I rolled my eyes, turned my phone off and said out loud...'Silly drunk person'...Then I realized...:happy: HAHA!! That's not ME!! I'm not the drunk texter!! I was so proud of myself! Then today, I got another text from another friend asking me to get a sitter for tomorrow night so we could 'hang out'...which means 'get drunk' . I didn't even have to think about it, I told her I couldn't. I just don't want to..HAHA!! I haven't had these reactions since I was AF when I was pregnant! I am really happy with myself. I just want it to be for real this time. I can feel myself embracing my sobriety instead of fighting it....well today anyway. Just wanted to share:yes2:

                        sobriety is indeed a joy and something to celebrate. I recall for the longest time my fears that being AF would be such a "loss". if only I knew in my 20's what I know now I would have given al the boot so long ago.

                        welcome Obsidian Tears! tears of laughter now I trust.
