I hit 14 years last July, so I’m hoping to hit 15 soon. I remember when I thought 90 days was out of reach, and 1 year was impossible.
Tonight was my night to buy beer for one of my hockey teams, it always feels weird to be picking out beer that I never drank and driving him with the extras. Of course, I did pack my Diet Mt. Dew in the cooler (on top!) so they didn’t have to drink alone.
Congratulations! It’s great to hear someone make it so long. I’ve got 50 days here, and am already able to do things I had totally given up on, most importantly with my kids. So many things in post #14 are already true for me too, I won’t bother to repeat, but I am so glad to hear that you’ve made it 5 years and are happy! Keep it up!
Luckily, I’m smarter than they are. I ended up with 2 coolers, and stashed 3 dews in one cooler and 3 in the other (under all the Coronas!) so when they snaked my dew, I had backup!
