Day 457

Good morning!  My name is Lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  When I was I at my rock bottom, I could have given up.  I felt like giving up.  I felt like dying.  But I didn't, I went to treatment, left my family, my husband, my 2 young children, for 45 days, so I could restart.  So I could sober up, and learn how to live the rest of my life sober.  I could have let it continue to destroy me. I could have let it define me.  I choose to let it strengthen me.  One day at a time, I get stronger.  Today I have been sober 457 days.  That is awesome!  I am working on my second book right now.  My friend is working on the cover right now.  I am so excited.  These are things that I never would have never been able to do if I were still drinking.  I am so blessed.  God has given me the strength and courage to share with others my story of experience, strength and hope.  Well, that's all I have for today.  Have a great one!
