30,60,90

3 months sure is a milestone.7 I know for me when I had hit my 90 days that was a real big deal cause I had spent years not being able to reach that 90.

I seemed to get 30 no problem, and sometimes 60 but, somewhere between 60 & 90 I would lose it and go back out and use.

I used to think I was the one they talked about in how it works "some of us are unconstitutional incapable of being honest with ourselves". (I think that is how the quote goes?)

BTW your little boy is sooo cute you are so lucky. I spent a lot of my time regretting the fact that I never had a family. I am now 50 and no kids and somehow I feel so much less of a woman because of it. Although I know my addiction would have probably gotten my child taken away by CPS because I was a street junkie and well the two just don't mix.

Maybe God spared me all that pain because I am adopted and if I had lost a child that probably would have done me in?

I have a real respect for a lot of the women I have met in the rooms of AA & NA that have lost theirs and are now jumping through the very many hoops CPS makes them go through

Sorry for rambling on & on but its late and my mind tends to go all of the place..

Thanks for posting..Peace to you & your son.
