Day 261

I'm often happy to be sober, occasionally relieved, always accepting...but right now I am big-time grateful.it has been a hugely stressful weekend on several fronts and there is no way I would be in any kind of decent shape right now if I were still a drinking person. No. Freaking. Way. Even knowing I had to get up early to speak in a group meeting at 8 sharp tomorrow.

As it is now I've been surviving the stress, did all the chores and have even practiced what I'm going to say at the meeting tomorrow. The sober life is just so much better for me. So. Very. Much. I am grateful to the person I used to be who made the decision to start this journey. She was smart.
