My son is due any day now

I’m really happy I’ve managed to keep this streak going this far. Four years ago I told myself that I need to get sober if I’m going to become a father. I just knew the way I was living, getting blackout drunk multiple days a week, was not gonna be cohesive with a parenting lifestyle. Plus I never want my children to see me in that state. I’ve been making gradual improvements since then, and I broke my previous record! I’m just hoping I can keep it going.

I’m feeling pretty confident I can keep this streak going but I’m also worried the new stresses of parenthood might trigger me. It’s been easy to pass on drinking during the weekends when my wife isn’t drinking either. She is dying to have that first glass of wine in 9+ months, and hey, she never had any issues with her drinking so that’s fine by me. I guess reintroducing alcohol into our household just concerns me *slightly*.

Anyways, just thought I’d share. I’m excited for what’s to come. I hope this is just the beginning and I can keep this thing going. IWNDWYT!
