I was going to ask you to start us up again on January 1...you got the jump on me.

For any newbies who might wander in...HATZ was started on 1/10/06...and, we've been going strong ever since. This was the initial reason for the thread:

Because SR slows down during the wee-hours of U.S. time, some of the folks "across the pond" feel the need for speed (not that kind)...just somewhere there's a bit more action/sharing during their six-hour time difference.

This thread could also be helpful to those (like myself) who are up 2 - 3 times during the night. Or, those night owls who don't hit the sack until way past midnight.

This is the place to share...whenever...whatever!

Welcome to everyone...from the four corners of this old world.

Rae .....good to see you made it here again and now that we are in a different place..............but still going strong as usual.............................HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE........

Hope all you HATZers are tucked cozy in your beds. Tonight I have 6 kids, my niece and two nephews are sleeping over, it is a full house. I should be in bed to keep up with them all in the morning but instead I am here sharing the joy in my heart having all my sweeties under my roof. I am so grateful and lucky! Love to you all. Hugs.

Please help me. I think I am dying. I cant stand the pain anymore. You are such good people and I am such a jerk. I really want to just die and be over with it all.

OMG...Michael!!! Paula (My Three Sons) and I were just wondering about you the other day!!! You must have felt the vibes...'cause here you are!!!

You "say" it all the time...you've taken that "one step" by reaching out to us...now put one foot in front of the other...there you go.

I cant stand the pain anymore.

Sure, you can...you didn't come all this way...gone through everything to get here...just to give up on yourself. You're stronger than that...and, we're here to pull you along...you gotta believe.

Remember...no pain, no gain. I remember when my first sponsor told me that...wise a$$ that I was, I responded, "Then I must be growing in friggin' leaps and bounds!"

It's so good to see you back among the HATZ'ers, dear friend!

Michael, please don't give up. Keep reaching. We are here for you. You are not a jerk, that is stinking thinking! Get out of your head, please talk to someone in person. I know you are uncomfortable with the 'god' asspect of AA, but a meeting might have a person that you could connect with that will understand your pain. Please Michael, know that we love you and want you to stick around with us. BIG HUG.

expenguin

We can all pray for Michael and let him know that we truely care..................He will make it through this ..........

Today is a beautiful day and a bit chilly..........Time to clean up those christmas decorations..........I did a little and finish the rest later.............can only do so much at once..................

A tornado hit TEXAX.......and I will pray for these people....

Doing ok for today and staying in the now...........

Love you all and wish you all a HAPPY NEW YEAR............

Micheal, Remember the guy that got this thread started again.
Remember the guy that shared that beautifull letter from your parents.
Remember the guy that sent Rae the flowers and made her cry.
You were there for me when I needed you. God damn you, people care about you. Your life is important to us all. I think about you everyday and wonder how you are doing. You are no different than any of us here. We are all in this together and we need you. You are wise and have alot to offer all of us.
I personally need you and do not want you to die. I do not want to die myself.
This disease sucks so bad. Please you have so much to offer.
I am sending you love even though I'm a guy and its not something us guys do.

Thank you all for the support. I feel better today, yet still a bit lethargic. I'll survive. Tomorrow is the 1st and I shall never drink again. I just really hope I can keep the oath. I'm really sorry if I caused any of you concern or worry.

mythreesons

Great to see you Michael! Just take things one day at a time. You can do it and we are here for you. Thinking about you and sending you a warm hugs across the time zones.

Jersey Nonny

No need to apologize, Michael...wouldn't you feel the same if it were one of us!?! Just don't drink today...take care of tomorrow when it gets here! OK!?! Better behave...Max sounded like he meant business...you're liable to open your door and find a cigar smoking alcoholic from Seattle ready to kick butt, if you don't heed his loving words!

The disco ball is glittering and spinning it's light...while my partner and I will be jumpin' and jivin' all through the night!

The count-down to midnight will soon be here...so join us then to greet the New Year!
