Web Design Updates and being sober

Posted on July 28, 2026

Hey!
So, I've been working on my website for the past three days and I'm finally happy enough with the design and layout that I can actually start blogging! The whole point of me creating this space was to write, and to be honest, I thought it was going to take a lot longer to get it to this point, so I'm pretty pleased! There is still a lot to do and more pictures to add, but it's a work in progress!

Creating this blog was fundamental in helping take my mind off going sober. Now, I'm not saying I was an alcoholic, but I was well on my way to becoming one. I just love wine — Sauvignon Blanc is a favorite of mine. I'm on day 9 of being sober now, which is probably the longest time in 16 years that I haven't had a drink, and at the moment I'm feeling pretty good about it!

I've got two more days until I return to work, so I'll continue plodding on with the site, adding more photos and more blog content. I'm pretty proud of myself right now. Let's keep it up!!
