Great! Kayaked with my business partner for six hours yesterday, bouncing over rough surf on the open water and breaking branches through a tight river.

I woke up today, cleaned the kayaks, and decided to do a bunch of yardwork. Never, ever would've happened back in my drinking days.

Sounds like you got a lot done! Kayaking seems like it was a lot of fun. I’m pretty jealous of that

I'm good. How are you?

Today my wide and I are stripping the pealing paint from our deck. I can not imagine doing this while hung over or drunk. My wife and I would definitely be bickering and arguing.

I’m doing good! Just working but it’s nothing too crazy.

Are you planning on repainting it? Glad you’re doing it sober! Everything seems better sober and life just seems better

Just a tinted stain this time.
