Going to an 80s themed murder mystery dinner party tonight! I’m super excited, but I’m going to be with friends that I haven’t seen in 2 years that I used to drink heavily with. Luckily I have an arsenal of NA drinks with me and knowing that I have almost 90 days is keeping me steady :metal:t3:

E2A: What are the odds?? Of 20 people there, there was a guy there who saw/heard that I quit drinking and made a point to come chat with me. He has 26 years sober and wanted to check in with me because he knew that I was new to sobriety. Ended up having an amazing conversation with him and felt so encouraged about my journey. I’m not super emotional, but I was incredibly touched by him reaching out and talking with me.

And this was at a party with all the people I used to get blackout drunk with! Like for real- what are the odds? Lol

That’s so awesome Kate! You are out living a good sober life! The same recommendations as the holiday parties…have an exit plan, have your own drinks, have support you can call if needed…and have fun!

It was super fun! It’s nice to have some cue cards and notes for chatting with people, since I’m pretty shy lol. But it was a blast, I’m thinking about hosting my own now!
