Morning Sober Family! Today shall be ethanol free!💜

I will not be drinking today.
Getting off work early today, which in the past meant I would have texted my husband and been like "Let's hit up happy hour" since we usually aren't able to and "it's a special occasion".
Instead, I got some window Sills that need to be stripped and painted, and a fridge that needs cleaning. Sounds much more boring but I'll feel so much better when it's done!
IWNDWYT!
I’m off a half hour early today myself! I hate chores with a passion. 🤬
Me too. 100%. It's why I would typically pour myself a beer to "get through the chores". But I'd get 1/3rd of the way through one, lose motivation, and then sit down "just for a second".
Before I knew it I'd be 5 down and just laughing my ass off mindlessly at YouTube. 😭
It took over 2 weeks for my energy to return, but I'm tryna capitalize on it while I still got it!
OMG YES!!! And paperwork too. Anything I dreaded doing was accompanied by Jack and Coke.
Are you my twin? I've studied for most major tests at a quiet bar, and done research at a bar...I mean...I'm not going to say I got far in my reading materials 😂
Year 6, if I was able to do it so can you.
I keep forgetting to check in but day 20 for me. not drinking today. still in hospy until they sort my meds out, tired all the time feel like they replaced my brain with an empty cardboard box.
Day 2,336, I will not drink today.
Wonderful!! -Signed, Day 445. 😉
Congratulations! Making it past 1 year is huge.
