YESSSS.... Finally effin Friday, :)

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/stop drinking 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!

It’s crazy how 28 years of my adult life was centered around drinking. Dinner parties with the intention on getting drunk. Vacations planned, eat drink, walk around town to the next place, drink etc. Not sure if you have it over there, there is a hotel chain by Hilton called Embassy Suites. Managers evening reception 6-8pm, free appetizers, beer and well drinks. Multiple vacations planned with staying there in mind. Going out both locally and on holidays is still very weird now (almost two years for me)
