Hello SD, Happy Friday! Like the title says "How do I celebrate 6 months"? Just a little backstory... I am an alcoholic, there is a lot of reasons as to why I quit drinking. It was one day I didn't want to drink, and the next day I walked into AA to see if they could help me stay sober. I had nothing... my clothes were kept at a buddys in town. My electronics were kept at my moms 45 mins away. I slept in a laundry mat or a park. A week after being sober my mom took me in full time. I had a job close to hers at a liquor store and we worked almost the same hours. Things worked out, eventually 2 months into sobriety I got a full time job closer to my moms house. I worked very hard to save my money and in only a month and a half I was ready to put down rent and a security deposit. I have been on my own for 2 months now. i'm very comfortable being by myself, and true to my sobriety. I have spent a lot of my money earned on getting started... things for the apartment, rent, bills, security deposits on bills, food, ect...

I paid all upcoming bills yesterday and rent will be paid with my next check. I have some extra money, I dont want to spend a lot but I feel like I should do something nice for myself. My 6th month of sobriety is next Saturday, I haven't "celebrated" any months prior, but obviously this one is a huge milestone for me.

Any ideas would be awesome SD or just hearing what you've done to celebrate would a) be fun to read and b) maybe point me in the right direction. Thanks for reading
