Super Sober Sunday Shout Out 10th April 2016

[JackieClaire]

I'd like to see a SHOUT OUT and hands in the air from members who have been here a while, those just starting out again and those just starting out for the very first time.

SHOUT IT LOUD AND PROUD AND STAY STRONG AND KEEP THINKING POSITIVE ONE AND ALL LET'S GIVE OUR BEST TOGETHER .
So don't be shy and give it a try...........

Let the time and date calendar take the strain from your brain when you're counting ................... http://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html

For me its 2470 days from the start date to the end date, end date included orr 6 years, 9 months, 4 days including the end date..........to be continued :love:

Today it is 123 weeks or 861 days of sobriety.

I remember when i first stopped drinking i thought I would never ever ever ever ever be sober for any amount of time but I am proving myself wrong each and every day! Life is good.

Another sober one for me. Glad to see you're doing well Jackie & Ava. I've begun to feel a bit "boring" when I'm out within drinkers, y'know not quite keeping time with the conversation. Time to get my socialising mojo back!!

Yeah I understand that SF ........ but it will come and I've found eventually people will seek YOU out to get a decent conversation
1022 days pour moi :yay:

[satz123]

I can feel like that too SF -- but what I do is ration myself -- only go out for a couple of hours max -- not long enough for them to get bored with me and maintain an air of mystery:congratulatory:

Lovely morning here -- my sober Sunday mornings now are so much the norm there would be a risk of not appreciating them -- however had a drinking dream two nights ago -- and it was ALL in there -- my children (as they were - the age - when I was still drinking) - looking at me -- not sure if I was going to be available to do whatever it was they wanted -- or capable of driving -- not going TO me with a problem but finding away round me as their problem -- I felt it was sent to me as a present -- so grateful to be reminded of what I could still be if I let it -- today all my family trust me implicitly -- I mightn't be the greatest mum on earth - but I'm the best I'm capable of and I could never have said that back then -- so HAPPY SOBER SUNDAY folks!!!

Oh Molls that says it all.
I shed a tear for the drunk Molls and the drunk rest of us ..... and all we missed.
Feck - when I think about it - it must have been exhausting trying to hold up all those balls in the air
To this day I get a frisson of worry when Mr S goes to my car - a throw back to when I'd have something to hide.

Shouting out loud and proud - 184 days for me!! Posting from my - phone from the centre of Athens - wishing a happy sober Sunday to all!!

640 days. 640 days. 640 days. It's a wonder!

[Justme Again]

Wow, guys! Inspiring thread!
Day 4 here. Super nice to wake up sober. Last Sunday I was a mess, wondering how I will survive the week.
Today positive and seeing possibilities.

Happy Sober Sunday crew! 810 for me. Did my first ever 5K yesterday. I never, ever would have thought I'd be doing something like that! I love sobriety. :love:

[Sunbeam]

JustMeAgain, congrats to you on four days, it gets easier the longer you go.

Working my way toward four years, enjoying the ride.

[techie]

5 Years, 11 Months, & 29 Days

[NoSugar]

Let's make that 6 years, Techie :smile: - Congratulations and thanks for sticking around to show us it can be done!

1172 here (if my buddy Satz did the math right :wink:.)

[A new page]

519 days here, and back from first sober vacation this week! It was easier and more fun that I imagined it would be.
Congrats everyone, fantastic numbers here! :welldone:

[Byrdlady]

1908 super sober days! New Page, I am about to go on vacation next week and I am thrilled to be sober and not anxious about it. A blessed relief!!! B

[Pavati]

860 Days, if my friend Ava did the math right.

I found my social self is still in there, but sometimes she needs more prompting. Once she comes out, she can hold her own. Sometime I just let her be, though, and that's ok, too.

And way to go, JustMe. Keep it up.

[scottish lass]

Happy Sunday all - 107 days today, happily!
A very rare day without an alarm to make me get up - today's activities put off due to rain! Thought I would take the time to do a favourite Sunday activity and shout out!
