Picked up my 60 day keychain today - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Today I picked up my 60 days keychain

Actually it's 62 days already but due to a flue I couldn't go to a meeting for a couple of days.
So I got the green one now. It goes nice with the couple of white ones I have and the orange one, hehe.
I thank my Higher Power, my NA fellows, the program and last but not least myself for doing the footwork.

Today I didn't use, I didn't pick up and stayed clean. Today was a succesful day. I can't change yesterday, I do not know what tommorow brings so I'm gonna keep taking it ONE day at a time. And to be honest any more I can't handle. But so far it works and that's more then I expected when I first entered this program.

Regards,

Nick.

AWESOME!!!

Keep going back, Nickaddict!

... and please tell me what the orange tag is

Nickaddict · 04-20-2005, 04:15 PM

Thanks WNY Addict, I WILL keep going back

And the orange keychain is for 30 days of clean time.
Don't you have that in the US too? Maybe it's a typical Dutch (or European) NA thing, I don't know.
Here are the colors we use in The Netherlands:

White = for newcommers, relapsed, recommiting, etc.
Orange = 30 days
Green = 60 days
Tomato Red = 90 days
Blue = 6 months
Yellow = 9 months
Glow-in-the-Dark = 1 year
Grey = 18 months
Black = 2 years or more

Yeah. I guess I always looked at it as kind of a glowing red... for some odd reason. Maybe my color perception went out with all those brain cells I wasted
