Sober weekend... WOOT!

I made it through the weekend sober... almost unheard of for me! And it was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. Wow, early morning Saturday and Sunday without a miserable hangover, pretty nice actually. And I actually feel like I had a weekend because it's not all a blur. Thanks to everyone here for your support. I am now on day 10. :-)

Great job! It's fun being sober and actually make decisions about what you want to do.

Way to Go Elena *crazy loud applause* Way to go!

I can relate to enjoying a weekend, it's wonderful isn't it. Sometimes when I go somewhere early I look around at people and think, 'have people always gone outside this early???'

And a sad one or good one...either way, was seeing someone who was obviously hungover and buying beer at 9 am...talk about a blast from the past!

Congratulations, Elena!!

I remeber when I hit day 10 I felt like I had succeeded in climbing Mt. F***ing Everest!!

The hangover-less Saturdays and Sundays are sooooooooooooooooooo much better than the alternative, aren't they?

Good for you!! Keep going strong!!
