I received my 90 day chip at AA this past Monday night.
All the guys kept telling me how proud they are of me. I wish you could see the scene. I'm the only woman in a group of guys who, for the most part, were hard drinkers. HARD.
Some of these guys have seen difficult times. I'm convinced several of them lead motorcycle gangs.
But they all show up, week after week, to support each other. Because that's how you have to do it. Day by day, week by week.
Now I can say I haven't had any alcohol for three months. Do I still think about it? Yes. But not like I did. Most mornings now I wake up and get my coffee and get ready for work and I don't remember that three months ago I was waking up in the morning filled with condemnation and guilt.
It's gone. And THAT is a wonderful feeling.

Freedom and no hangover! He's got His eye on you~ and I keep reminding Him how much you need Him. (as if He didn't know!) One day at a time is really real:-))
