I. Am. Back. :) Thank you rosamundi for the much needed break! Sober peeps how are you doing today??

We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together!

Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.

Maybe you’re new to c/stopdrinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.

It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!

Happy Sunday everyone! Having an old mattress hauled away that we've been meaning to get rid of for a WHILE, cleaning out my car, getting some homework done, and just catching up on all the big "spring cleaning" type projects that we've been neglecting! It's a good Saint Patrick's Day to be sober!

Hope everyone's day goes or went well! IWNDWYT!

Holy shit! I didn't even realize it was Saint Patty's!! That's gotta be a good sign for my sobriety!!! Went camping/catfishing/dryland fishing Friday and just got back. The whole haul for the weekend was a big ol filthy carp I caught yesterday morning (28"er) but still had a fuckin ball! Can't fucking believe I didn't even know it was Saint Patty's Day!! About time to start spring cleaning for us, too.. Fuck, I dread it...

That sounds like an awesome weekend! Glad you had fun! My husband and I are also going camping this coming weekend! Completely dry/no facilities, which we've never done that style of camping before. It's certainly going to be an adventure!

And yes! Since I turned 20, this is only the second dry Saint Patty's day I've ever had! Feels kinda nice being productive and knowing that I'm gonna wake up refreshed tomorrow! Spring cleaning always hella sucks though. It's nice when it's done, but fuuuuuucccckkkkk I enjoy being lazy on the weekends.

Hope y'all have as good a time or better than we did! And definitely wish ya better luck if you're fishing! That's pretty much the only kinda camping we do, no facilities, no worries. But, now the workweek is back and it's time to break the donuts.
