I am looking forward to following your thread, Mizzuno !
I am 58 yrs and happily, proudly, humbly sober (for the 2nd time), now and for good, for 2 1/2 years. I love your last line -
When the drinking stops the real work begins..........
I have found a wealth of knowledge and insight into myself from SR. I read here daily and try to post, as well. I found out, as I was reading threads and thinking about the responses, how much was applicable to my own struggles. I feel so grateful to have found SR and to be a part of this amazing community.
I am a fan of more sedentary interests, I love to read, write, scrapbook and I have more TV shows on my "must watch" list than I care to admit!
Anyway, that is a bit about me. As I said, I am looking forward to your updates
As well, I want to add how sorry I am for the loss of your sister.
