    Sober January!

    Hi, all:

    Glad things are going well, Free.

    BK - what's up with you?

    Hi, Skull and everyone. Closing day 57 - whoo hoo!

      Sober January!

      Pav- thanks for asking.. I'm doing good enough... Stuck posted this on my thread and I can relate to most of it... I have never had acute withdrawal but am experiencing most of this... But not the stench part.

      It's pretty funny... And cracked me up. I am proud that I have made it this long.. It hasn't been a walk in the park but we knew it wouldn't be.

      Be back soon.

      How are you?

      Hugs for everyone

          Sober January!

          Morning, everyone, how all ya'all doin? Today is Day 90 for me, it's kind of hard to believe it but I'm happy about it. Next up is February for a total of 120. The way I figure it is, I'm already three quarters of the way there so why not? (Well, I know why not, but you know what I mean).

          Everyone's doing so great this month, hope all's well in your worlds. Everyone should be so proud.

          So is anyone still with me on rocking Feburary the same way?

            Skull, huge congrats on 90 days - and as you said, so close to 120. Keep on keeping on!
            14 October 2013 was the first day of the best days of my life!

              I am Skull- my plan is all the way to June. Did one month.. Might as well do 4 more.
              Been feeling really quiet... But had a lot on my mind

                BK, great to hear you're going to do February as well. What's going on with you buddy, care to share?

                  Congrats SBL on 90 consecutive AF days. Bet you are feeling pretty good.

                  I'm on a plane this afternoon and most of tomorrow. All day meetings on Friday so may not get online for the next few days.

                  You'll see me on the Feb thread.

                    I like the plan of going month to month to keep the goal smaller and the decision less intimidating. I am in for february and for all the months that follow. Can't really imagine going back to the way I was. I have no desire/will/intention/nagging voice in the back of my heard etc that would tempt me really. I have been treating myself to a blended strawberry lemonade (like a daiquiri without the AL, which is how I always drank them- don't like hard L) which are delicious and cold and totally awesome ( I love my roommate for his Vitamix!). I have been under the weather the last couple of days, haven't been able to keep any of my meals down. And having vertigo whenever I stand up. Had a bitch of a fever the other night; had to pull out my electric blanket. I am feeling marginally better today, but again, breakfast is not staying down, so I will say adieu! I will let you know how the mortgage office and house viewing goes tomorrow! So excited for 30 days and a bday!
                    Cheers!

                      GO SKULL! 90 days is SUCH an accomplishment - a quarter of a year sober. Awesome stuff.

                      I am IN for February. I feel like you do, Tree. I don't really want to go back to drinking at all. There are times when I feel sorry for myself that I CAN'T, but really, I don't want to feel like that again. I love what June 3 said, so I'll say it again. If only one, why not none?

                      BK - How's it hanging? I hope your quiet is just that and you're ok.

                      FAL - Thanks for the check in - glad to know you're well.

                      Dreamy - any time!

                      We will be busy preparing your birthday/30 day celebration, Tree. Hope you feel well enough to enjoy yourself!!

                        Happy Birthday Tree and Happy Sober birthday too!

                        Skull- I'm so rude... Happy 90 sober day birthday.

                        You both Rock!

                        Pav- I don't know why the stars aren't aligning and I'm not happier that a bear with a big bowl of honey..
                        Been feeling a little insecure. Strange. This to shall pass.

                                Sober January!

                                Way to go, Tree! 30 is huge. Congratulations, and a very Happy Birthday to you.

                                Today is a big day for me, too - 60 days. It feels GREAT. One more day, and a successful (first) January is in the bag. I'll patiently await the start of a new thread by our friend Skull (but I'll check in here tomorrow, too).

                                BK - That's how I feel sometimes - in fact I am just coming off more than a week of blah. It is a startling realization that quitting booze doesn't make you happy ALL THE TIME! You seem to have a good attitude about it, though.

                                Good night, Januaries.
