I love the approach you've taken regarding other people's drinking-- we all have our own reasons, problems, solutions, internal dialogues and who are we to judge each other. We should do what we can independent of what everyone else is doing. I like this, I'm going to hold on to this. <br /><br />Also, I would love to just cut out of social gatherings earlier. Really, that would just alleviate so much anxiety. I love, love, love this concept. When I was sober last year I did that once or twice and it was great. Now that I'm here again I'm definitely exercising the right to leave whenever I want and not feel bad about it. You are right, it is a total revelation! <br /><br />Thanks so much for this blog. It was one of the first I found last year and I'm happy to see you're still here.

I LOVE the photo of you in one! Onesies are not in the US yet, so you are a trendsetter. <br /><br />I just love what you wrote here about how individual the choice to drink or not to drink is. How we never know what's going on inside the head of another and as long as they're not being abusive or putting themselves or others in danger, it really is their business. I find this attitude so liberating and yet I get away from it from time to time. And your message here is just what I needed to read today. Thanks dear xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-921119446130836418.post-67167884557252271462014-04-23T03:03:20.228+12:002014-04-23T03:03:20.228+12:00So inspiring!

I am not quite there, bouncing off the walls, but I get it and I can see it in the distance in my future. It's none of my business if others drink, and it's none of their business if I don't. But, I will tell you, I don't miss the afternoon passing-out's, and I don't miss the hangovers the next day! I love being able to stuff my face twice on Easter Sunday...not because I need to, but because I can and I don't have booze taking up space in my belly!

I also worry about going to bed or leaving early, like I'm some lame-o or something, but you're right. I don't need to be a part of everything all the time. Just typing that exhausts me.

Good to hear you had such a great Easter holiday. After soaking myself in booze on Friday and Saturday night, I woke up on Sunday and realised that I hadn't enjoyed any of it. Not one bit. And I hadn't done all of the things I planned to do. And I was sick and tired. As the saying goes, I finally really realised that I was sick and tired of being sick and tired. So, I have decided to join the sober community. Day three. Thank you for providing me with the inspiration and the belief that it is possible to lead a full and happy sober life.

But yesterday I saw a woman in a tiger onesie stroll out to her curb and bring her bin in. In daylight. Nonchalant as anything. Okay then, I thought, why not?<br /><br />I'm glad your Easter was lovely. I never thought of Easter as a drinking holiday before, but man, the amount of people offering me a drink this weekend shot sky high!

I heart going to bed with a book and waking up without a hangover or guilt (b/c sometimes/all the time, that "funny story or heartfelt confessional" isn't all that funny or appropriate after say, 2 bottles of wine).
