Smile 21 months yesterday

Yesterday I had 21 months. I celebrated riding quads on the dunes at the beach with my family and some NA friends. Such a different life than what I had 21 months ago. In recovery, anything is possible. Thank you God. Thank you NA. And thank you to all at SoberRecovery.

Like a beacon of light in the darkness, you are an inspiration to all of us.

Mike that is awesome. Now each time that we run into a birthday we can celebrate them together. I thought of you the other day when I turned 9 months. Very grateful that you have been a huge amount of my recovery this time and have given me the hope to continue my journey

With Love and Respect

Vic

Yes, 22 months. Looks like I will be celebrating it on the job this Sunday. We gotta work this weekend. Looking at a possible 10K week. A new record for my business. All possible due to a drug free life in NA. Should I buy another quad?

One of these. I own all three of these. Could use one more. We have 2 teenage girls. For now they share the blue Yamaha Blaster. The older girl (in the middle) likes her moms quad, so I am thinking about getting another 250 so she will have her own.
