Hi Im sharon and Im an Alcoholic.

By the Grace of my HP and people
like you here in SR I havent found it
necessary to pick up a drink of
alcohol since 8-11-90.

For that and you I am truely
grateful.


Hi Bikers in recovery. It's been
awhile since I last shared here.

Hmmmm....sounds similar to what
Id say to the Priest when I went
to confession as a little child.

Id like to say that there's not
much going on with me at the
moment....but that wouldnt be
exactly true.

In recovery we all go thru different
stages of change. When we first
get sober, we r like infants just
being born. We depend on others
to carry us and feed us food for
thoughts. We need the proper
nutrition to help us grow and
mature each step of the way.

Im going thru more changes even
with the number of yrs sobriety
I have. Changes is not always
easy and as we know most of
us dont like change and we dont
like the pain and discomfort we
bare when we go thru those
changes.

Today Im applying the tools of
recovery that was so freely passed
on to me to help me go thru my
divorce.

Ive been separated from my spouse
for over a yr now and we live in
different states. At the moment we
r in the negotiation stage. No
verbal communication...just emails.

So things r less complicated and
completely civil.

It's so good to have a program to
fall back on when things arise in
our lives to help keep emotions
in check.

I know that in a few months the
strings from my 25 yr marriage will
be cut and I will finally be free.

Freedom from the bondage and
I will soon know another new freedom.

My only hope is that the grieving
process won't last too long.

Im sooooo looking forward to
living many more yrs. one day
at a time happy joyous and free.
