Going out in a while to visit a suffering friend.
It so often comes to mind for me that if drinking I would not have the time to support my friends.

Grateful for 3,249 days without a drink or even the desire to want a drink.
Still amazed.
Bob

I remember when twice I came close but, didn't get over the 3 year sober mark. For some dumb reason I took my sobriety for granted. I've noticed that you don't take your sobriety for granted and stay very active in your recovery.

That is a nice amount of sober time my brother.

Congratulations

Bob

Thank you Bob I used to say in my first year il be sober for the rest of my life, a day at a time frightened me like I could drink the next day... and theoretically I could so it became sober forever that way there was no chance in me drinking I never want to go back to that place my headspace was or wasn't in

in a way I still think like that but today I realise all that I have is today yesterday was sober tomorrow hasn't happened

Thank you all

Had not a clue until I looked on my home page.

Grateful for 3,251 days of sobriety

Just for you Soberwolf
A happy Queen makes for a Happy King.

Note -- My Queen was very unhappy with my drinking.

They say that we don't stay sober for others.
Well then, I will call them a very nice side benefit.

Like a prodigal son, I'm so glad to be back. In April, I had 3 years sober by the grace of God and by dint of a primitive Eastern Orthodox ritual (By my own accord, I went to a priest who read prayers for me and made me swear with my hands on the Bible and the Holy Cross that I'd keep myself clear of any liquor for the time span of my choice - 3 years). Lost my father to liver cancer in February. My being sober helped him (and me) a lot. From April to last week, I drank copiously. Last Saturday I went to the same priest who, by my own accord again, repeated the "procedure". This time I asked God to grant me 7 years. My daughter turns 18 next January and I want to see her through college and whatnot. So, here I go again: day 7 for me today! But now I know it can be done: I have 1,095 days attesting to it under my belt.

Peace & love,
Goob
