hi gals good to be back , i have been super busy with cleaning house trusting in hp to make it thru the days alot lately. Today i am 5yrs sober and drug free thanks to my higher power for walking with me when i was at my weakest points during the past few months The things that have been so well learned the last few months is patience and tolerance Trusting in my higher power in all my affairs today and sometimes that means turning our children over to our higher power like i have mine one is in state care due to autistm and the other gradutated from a treatment program in december and back in high school even tho she is 18 but she feels getting her high school diploma is something to work hard for no matter what it takes she has been off of drugs and booze now since sept 17 and that i am blessed for i stay out of her soberity and she stays out of mine but we do support each other when it is needed and wanted

i have found that during my 4th yr of soberity it has been doing alot of personal change within me and my actions sometimes it is very hard to see it when we need to other times we just need a push as challenging as my past yr has been

I am thankful and grateful to have done it sober and drug free and i owe alot to my higher power and others here who have walked thru those hard times with me

much hugs and all in the fellowship

Hello Misty - I was just thinking about you the other day and wondering where you had gone to! I'm really glad to see your post and I'm really happy to know that things are going better for you and your family. You sound much more at peace and that is such a wonderful thing. I know how hard things had been for you and it is great to know that things are looking up. Congratulations on your 5 year anniversary - it is a huge accomplishment that you have managed to stay strong through all that you have been through - I hope you are very proud of yourself! So good to see you back - stay in touch!
