So great to hear that Omega10, Thanks for the update and happy Anniversary : )
It's refreshing to come in and see folks who have been supportive and care about learning and helping other ones in the struggle.
The first 5 yrs of sobriety for me was working on myself and spiritual side. Though alone I began to enjoy it more than ever before : )
Since that learning period I've fallen in love and am currently in a 3yr long relationship, got a new job, and lost my father and grandmother during these eight years of sobriety.
Quite a lot of life has been happening. That can be a big part of it's beauty. I try getting out to new backpack adventures and musical events which has always been a passion.
