Made it through the 4th!

Even I’m surprised. We’re host a party every year, and there’s a lot of booze - it’s just what people bring to parties. I sent several guests home with a bottle of wine so I’m not keeping it at the house. I told them Inwas doing a sober month. I was surprised how receptive people were - I got a few “now, of all times?”comments (besides the 4th, our family has some birthdays in July). But also several people who were just like “oh that’s cool” or “yeah I’ve been thinking about doing the same for x y z reasons”. I love that I’m awake and feeling good enough to go play tennis the morning after a party. All in all it was easier than I thought it would be and I’m feeling very encouraged
