500 days free of alcohol

500 days free of alcohol. To say this year has tested my commitment would be an understatement. Tomorrow is my brother's birthday; he would have been turning 42. Instead of having a drink in his honor, I'm going to listen to his favorite records, cry, pray, maybe learn to play a Garth Brooks song he loved so much. Maybe I'll just stare at the wall...but I'll do it sober.

Congratulations Brittany!! :partying_face::partying_face: and sending you a hug. Do what you need to do to feel close to him, even if it’s just sitting in the presence of things that remind you of him. I’ll be thinking about you tomorrow.
