New here, saying hello

Hi everyone, new to this site. A friend recommended it to me.

Not new to recovery, but still a lot to learn. Going to settle in and see what I can find of interest. Thanks to the owners of this site for giving people a place to share.

Larry

Welcome Larry. It definitely is a great place. Pull up a chair and relax. Its also a very fun place to be. Some of the posts have me laughing out loud quite often. Its nice to be able to laugh in recovery and surprising when it first happens. Again - enjoy and welcome to the family!

Hi Larry - glad you are part of the SR family now!! (ok, that might have sounded a little "cult-ish" - not my intent)

I agree with Hlover - I wasn't sure I remembered how to laugh, let alone think I could ever do it again sincerely. I do that here all the time. It's also a great place to get support, questions answered, motivation and encouragement. all things that I didn't have before I came here.
sure hope you stick around - and glad you're traveling on recovery road with us!

Such a cheery place with all the fancy avatars, sigs, etc. Rella's dancer is mesmorizing.

Heavy, that's one ticked off looking bird you have there. LOL

MissyMae, love your Socrates quote. It's taken me a while, but I finally figured out not having enough money was not my problem. Wanting a lot of unnecessary things was.

So I'm going to give that a try for a while and see how it works.
