Talking Are you Ready for this ??

I have not had a drink since Christmas. Wahoo, what do you think about that. Only by the grace of God do I not drink.

I think that I have had a vision of something. This may sound corny but I think I am getting a tattoo when I hit ninety days. It will be of an angel slaying a dragon, you know the dragon is satan and alcohol. I think it will be a good reminder of what has passed.

I know that some of you will think I am crazy, but it is what I am thinking.

Ciao..

Great news! Don't know about the tattoo though - how about getting a picture of the new you. Keep up the good work. I'm routing for you.

Congrats on your sober time! A tattoo is cool, but maybe wait for a milestone, like one year?!! As long as it has meaning to you, get whatever you want -- you're the one who will have to look at it every day for the rest of your life. (Yes, I have a tattoo too!)

Congratulations.
That makes you have over 60 days. 70 days as of today?
Nice collection of days.

The tat is a nice idea in thought. Think on it though before rushing out to get one. Getting a tat can bring it's own risks and they are forever.
