Welcome to SR, Heather!!!
Congrats on your recovery. Tell us a bit about yourself. And be sure to look around on the substance abuse and NA forums and of course, this one and the recovery follies! Always good for a laugh.
Hope to see you around here often as we both grow in our recovery.
Shalom!

Hey Heather,
Welcome to SR. You will find a lot of love and support here.

My uncle lives in San Bernadino. It's a beautiful place (from what I can remember of it).

I constantly refer to the motto I learned from Paulie. Just do the next right thing.

Welcome, this is such a wonderful group of lovely ladies.

This site has helped save my life and then to learn to constantly improve and grow.

Much wisdom here and all the hugs anytime you need or want.

Live
