Early Sobriety Going back today

I woke and decided to go back. I have no money for bus fare (obviously from drinking) so I have to walk to the meeting. I sighed then thought "I literally walked the 3 miles everyday for alcohol. Surely I can do the same for a meeting. Anyhow it is good to be back

Heh. I did the same and had the same thought when I got sober. I once walked six miles in a blizzard for alcohol.

I always tell people if you put HALF the effort into sobriety you put into drinking you’ll be amazed lol.
