Somewhat to our surprise, staying sober turns out not to be the grim, wet-blanket experience we had expected!
While we were drinking, a life without alcohol seemed like no life at all.
But for most members of AA, living sober is really living -- a joyous experience.
We much prefer it to the troubles we had with drinking.
One more note: anyone can get sober.
We have all done it lots of times.
The trick is to stay and to live sober.
Living Sober, preface
Every recovery from alcoholism
began with one sober hour.

I have always understood Sober living to mean "living Sober" not as a dry drunk but living in sobriety. s-o-b-e-r L-i-v-i-n-g... I have been through five treatment centers and in them have never heard them referred to as "sober living homes", Just as a safe sober environment.
