Good morning Nesters,
HoneySoup - I have lost both parents and it is very hard around their birthdays and angelversary's. Staying sober through these hard days helps us to cope rather than drown our sorrows, because you can't drown them, they know how to swim.
ITGeekChick - Sorry you are going through this. I find myself getting stronger without AL and not putting up with stuff I have been ie: drinking it away or too hunover and self loathing to care.
Lori35 - welcome to this wonderful site, you will find lots of support and I am true believer that if you really want something you will make it happen.
Happy to be hangover free on a Sunday morning enjoying my delicious coffee rather than being too sick to have one. We went to our friends last night and I was the only one not drinking and it did not make one iota difference to myself or my wonderful friends. We had lots of laughs and it is truly freeing to not think about AL. I did not feel deprived, sorry for myself or anything. I just felt blessed to have such an amazing group of friends who know and accept my choice.
Life is good
