Talking Happy New Year

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!

This is my first New Year at SR.

This time last year I was going crazy over family issues and had lost almost all the program I had stored up till that time....11years worth.

We were back living close to sober dysfunctional relatives and sharing a buisness with them...I don't regret it....I learned alot..namely..I wasn't as "recovered" as I thought...because we never "graduate" from recovery. As soon as you think you have it all figured out...watch out! I still had ALOT to learn..

I never thought I would be able to set boundaries with these relatives and keep to it, but I have...I have self respect, peace and joy!

I am sane today and in possesion of some serenity...

I hope you all have the best year yet!

Love to my acoa family,

Growing
