I Got clean and sober through AA/NA. I got involved in service in AA/NA on the activities commitee. We plan the sober events. Last Summer was best summer I ever had. Sober beach parties, bonfires, kareoke, dances, kickball games, softball games . I started chairing AA/NA meetings.
After 6 months clean I started speaking at detox once a week. Same detox I was in by the way 6 months earlier.
Was elected secretery of H and I. We bring meetings into detox and jail and pscyh wards.
I started chairing AA meetings on line.
My family came around and forgave me. I got my drivers license back after 7 years. woohooo! All my criminal things are 7 years behind me and don't show up on a level ll background anymore wooohooo!
I got a full time job.

I found myself! Life is good most days, except going thru menopause. lol
I am a total B the last 2 weeks. But I am clean and sober and I laugh a lot!!
