Today is a GOOD day !! - 1YR of sobriety

Today marks a huge milestone for me and my sobriety. Today is my 1YR anniversary !!!

It's has been a tough road and NOT a very rosey one. I lost my wife after 18 years of marriage and I'm still going through a very sticky divorce. I guess co-dependancy was not for her.

I'm now a single dad of (4) awesome boys. For those that know me, I have an 11 year old son & triplet 9 year old boys.

They are what has kept me sane and sober !!!!!!!!!!

This time last year, I was just getting out of DETOX and my life was UNMANAGEABLE!! Met an AA group in DETOX and have been with them ever since.

I NEVER thought I would get to this day but wanted to share and say thanks to all of you that have helped me through this past year.

LOVE YOU ALL !!!!!!!!!

Few make it as far as you have. The one-year mark is truly a milestone to never take lightly. It's time to give what you have to others. Thanks for posting and thanks for staying sober for your kids.
