Right I'm going to blow me own trumpet now since no-one else is and I'm proud. I've got 90 days sobriety and I don't care if I'm being big headed because it's the hardest thing I've ever done in my life.
AL has affected a lot of my life - over 50% of it in some way or another and I spent my 20s and early 30s not living because of it. Im 13 weeks my life has opened up immensely to the point where I have to regularly reign it in. People actually like me sober and want to spend time with me. That's the thing that means so much to me. However to get to this point I have to work every minute, every hour of every day. There is no room for slacking and I've to put my sobriety FIRST.
Friday I was on my way to an event I'd been planning for months but I felt so much in danger of having a drink I sought out and went to an AA meeting. This made me late but at one point I decided if I had to I would miss the event and stay in my hotel room if I had to.
So that's me and perhaps I'll write my story out at some point, when I get around to it!

These milestones are so important for us to recognise. To ackwnoledge them and be grateful. That's what keeps us from going of the trax. Grattitude.
