Today I have 5 months!
I just cannot even believe it! I am sooo joyful today! Thankful, grateful for all of you and the program of NA! While I still don't always get my way (HAHA) I don't think I have felt this great in many many years!

I can honestly say I feel like I am in recovery today and it feels wonderful!

Sheila
