Hi Charlene!
It's your sister, Gina. I found you. I'm so glad you posted. I'm still learning how to manuever around this site. Do we still have plans for Wednesdays in the meeting room? 7:00 p.m. our time.
It looks like your getting a lot of support. I'm glad we're doing this together. I posted on the Newcomers board if you wanted to take a look at it.
And for everyone at SR, I'm Gina - Charlene's sister - #6 out of the 7. I also am addicted to alcohol, and like Charlene, it is my drug of choice. I have 3 wonderful sons and have been drinking steadily for a very long time. Today will be my first day of sobriety (again). I can't keep count on the many times that I've said that (and meant it, too!). But its one day at a time. Pray for me. The tears are already flowing.
I love you, Charlene. Talk with you soon. Hang in there everyone. There's a lot of support and caring on this site. I can see that already.

I hope you find peace and hope. I also hope you can fulfill your quest in becoming free of Alcohol.

I first started using speed when I was 16 and I'm 55 now and clean from it for over 4 years. I haven't had a drink in a little over 3 years... So you see it's never too late to have an excellent life!
Being clean and sober gets to be a habit too... so I sincerely hope you can binge on life for awhile!!!
Life rocks!!
hugs,

Kisses to you, sis.
