Day 2006 = almost 5 ½ years
Thinking about how different I feel today, 3rd October 22 compared to 3rd April 2017. Way back then when I joined the soberschool. At the time I had convinced myself I would never be able to stop drinking. It just wasn't going to happen to me. How was reading about not drinking actually going to… Continue reading Day 2006 = almost 5 ½ years

Day 1237 – am

Whilst watching another amazing sunrise on holiday I reflect on the countdown to 1000 days. How is this even possible! I'm super chuffed with myself. To be honest I never thought I'd make 10 days.
