Well, I got to day 286 then blew it. Had a tough Sunday with my kids stressing me out and went on a solo bender. Pubs, then a carry out then more pubs. Woke up vomiting and with my head splitting in pain. Forgot how awful hangovers are. I’ve reset my counter, which was so depressing. Back to the start. Day 5.

    Wow, 286 days, that's amazing....I can't manage one day without a drink yet.  If you can do that, you can do anything. 

    Good luck....but I know you don't need it.  I admire you so much.

    Don't be depressed. You've done fantastically well. All those days sober. You should be proud.

    Absolutely great - 286 days without the demon drink - well done to you.  Ok you had your bender now go for another 286 days.  I wish I could go one day I too admire you.
