Just passed 11 months. The best of my life.
Every now and then it's good to read about how sobriety is so great.
I am loving life.

Lol, Thanks Andrew!

We sang this song at my wedding. It's hard, when we cross over into recovery, to look back at what we did to ourselves. But by G*d, it makes us appreciate life now!

Congratulations on 11 months. Keep doing what you're doing and you'll keep getting what you're getting!
