Thirty Years Later
10/2/88 -10/2/18

Today is the 30th anniversary of my sobriety date. The last time I had a drink I made an illegal left turn at 3:00 a.m. and hit a county sheriff. I was newly divorced, deeply in debt, and living alone in an apartment with no furniture and a blind cat.  I had just failed out of graduate school.

Life is good today. I've been married for twenty-seven years to an amazing woman who has never seen me drunk. I have two wonderful children.  I've worked for Greenbriar for almost twenty years. I always know where my car is.

Being sober has taught me to enjoy everything else in life. I highly recommend it.
