    AF for December

    Good Morning all who are taking the AF December challenge. Today is Day 16 for me.
    AGuy, WOW you are doing so good, 7 Days. I know how hard it was for me after drinking 24/7. I do not think you will be boring, you may be the only one to tell the stories the next day, for you will be sober. Again great work.

        AF for December

        Good Morning Wednesday

        Hey All-December is rolling along-
        Unwasted-I'm sleeping well too! After a bit over 2 months I feel very good. It's such a novel
        feeling.

        I used to read about how it gets better each day and so on and could not quite believe it. Of course for whatever reason I couldn't get there. Now I see what they meant.

        Everybody --have a great sober day.

          Had another A/F evening and upon waking this morning, the realization that I FEEL GOOD... never ceases to amaze me. So used to the cotton mouth, funny tummy feeling. Onward and upward.

              So great to hear! I have also heard again and again that it just gets better and better the longer you go without Alcohol. I'm determined to find that out for myself this time! Sleep is wonderful and waking up hangover and guilt free is great.

              Glad to hear everyone is doing so well on this thread!! :l:h

                So great to hear from everyone! And yes it does get easier the longer that you stay sober. This is the 7th day of Dec. and I am still sober. I feel so alive. I got an interview later today and I don't have to worry about drinking or its effects because I no longer drink. (during the week I rarely drank and when I do, it was only 2-3 but it was still too much).
                I quit drinking on March 8, 2020. Taking it One Day At A Time and no more taking my quit for granted.

                Also doing it for me. I got to stay sober for me.

                Just consecrate on today and do what you can to remain sober for today and worry about staying sober tomorrow, tomorrow.

                    Drifty, hope the interview went well. I totally hear you about 2-3 drinks being too much - it was for me also. The longer I'm away from alcohol the more I realize just how poisonous it was to my system. Even when I wasn't hungover I didn't feel 1/1000th as good as I do now!

                    Wally, I love your kitties and have 4 of my own. Jenn- I can just see your kitten sabotaging the tree. They are so adorable.

                    ML - you're sounding great.

                    Tipps, hope you can make it the whole month.

                    Nitey nite all - Sun, Ann, Dreams..........

                      Unfortunately the hours that they wanted conflicted with my school hours so I didn't get the job.

                            Hi AF For December Gang!

                            Can I join you? I think this is just the thread I need to check in on daily to get me through the month AF. It's been a challenge to say the least as you all know with the holiday cheer flowing all around us. But we are stroner than AL and to make it through each day sober is so worth it in so many ways I can't even count them. Waking up feeling great is one. That's what I'll be doing tomorrow...no more hangovers! This is my 2nd month AF and my first Christmas sober. We can do this. Thanks Drifty for being our ring leader! You are an inspiration! Aguy and Timpin, stay strong. Timpin...if you drink you mentioned that who would know? Well, you would. Think about it. Fast forward to a hangover.

                            Barbara1234, are you around? I have been thinking of you 'cause earlier this year, when you started your journey, I believe we got to know each other in the Newbie's nest...and I always thought you were doing so great! And I see that you have been sober since May...that is wonderful. Nice to see you again.

                            Hi to everyone else on here making this month a magical, sober December!

                            BE HAPPY...BE CONNECTED...BE HEALTHY!
