    One of the best things about being sober is...

    Waking up really rested and in a good mood. No foggy achey head. Not having to wonder what I said/did the night before. Feeling good about myself and looking forward to the day. Being healthy and having ambition to persue the projects that I love. [B]EVERYTHING [B]is better without AL. I have not been sober very long compared to some but I feel free already! Thank you MWO!:yay::happy::cheering

      Being able to get work done! Having time in the evening to work on my "home" projects without worrying about spilling my drink..or looking at it in the AM and saying to myself, lousy job. Putting myself to bed, being able to remember the night before! Oh, did I mention the money we have saved!!!

        Being able to wake up early on weekend mornings and actually do stuff with my kids
        Knowing that when I made a scheduling error last week that disappointed my youngest, it was an honest mistake and not one made in an alchohol induced haze

                  DiscoBunnie - That is great that you made it 52 days. I can't imagine 1 week. How did you do it and what made you jump off after that long?

                        now that my kids are in middle school I don't bother trying to help them with math anymore! :H

                        the "new math", the one that I was sort of good at, and still remember the geometry and algebra is now old and there is a new new math that I cannot comprehend. At least if we come up with the same solution we're on the right track... so I defer to engineering hubby for that one

                        what's nice is reading the required reading along with the kids - not kid stuff anymore! if i want to contribute to the discussion I had better be clear headed while I read it - didn't matter so much with Beverly Cleary or E.B. White

                          alot

                          Remebering what I did last night, remember driving home, not worrying about being stopped by the cops, the WONDERFUL, RESTFUL SLEEP!!!!

                          It is great to do this, they call it a gratitude list (sorta) in AA................I write things out that I am grateful for often, kinda like this, it helps me appreciate sobriety!

                                No black outs and feeling great in the morning.

                                Looked in the rules and regs and could not find one about posting a link, if there is please forgive me: This is a humorous and ironic youtube clip (root beer ad) it pretty much sums up why it's great to stay sober.
