I bottled my first brew 10 days ago. At the bottom of the fermentor was a "sludge", grey waste it looked like. So I move to bottling bucket and bottle, and after 10 days I see this same appearing sludge in the bottom of my bottles. Can I still drink? I have a 6er of clear bottles I could take a picture.
bottled and have sludge

Send me a few and I will drink it to make sure it is safe
After 10 or 12 brews you will have refined your siphoning skills and you will have less and less trub. Right now it is important to learn how to pour your beer from bottle to glass leaving that trub behind.
Prob. normal. Congrats on the first brew

It is sediment comprised of yeast and probably a little trub. Homebrew that is bottle carbed and conditioned will have sediment, unless you filter it all out, which will strip flavor from your brew. It is totally normal.
If you haven't already, I would suggest reading up on homebrewing, and doing some research. a good place to start is here: How to Brew - By John Palmer

pics are always cool
I thought this was the case but wanted to be sure. Can't wait to crack one of these open and try them out.
