    How a little doggie helped me be sober all week

    Just wanted to share this with my friends, maybe even give someone out there a smile.

    It was my sons birthday last week, and after MUCH debate, I decided to go for it, and we got a little puppy. Well, for those of you who have had a puppy, it really is like adding a new baby to the family. All week long I was rushing home (when before was drinking) to check on the puppy, making sure he was ok, eating, and basically getting adjusted to his new home. Before I even realized it, I went all week long without one drink, nor did I even have the desire to drink. I realized that it was because of the puppy and the time that I would have normally been drinking was spent with doing things with my son and the puppy, going for walks, the dog park (which are a blast btw).
    I know the newness of the puppy will eventually wear off, and we will settle down into a more normal routine, but for now, I am just happy to have had such a good week not drinking.
    I LOVE MY SEROTONIN AND BOOZE SCREWS IT UP!!!!!

      Yes and thank you. Sometimes in life you just have to go for things, such as diving in and getting a little puppy. He is making our life very nice (well except for picking up poopies lol). If someone out there has thought about getting a dog, they do make life richer Im finding.
