3 years!!!

Yesterday I celebrated 3 years of sobriety. Life has gotten beyond full so I rarely have time to come on SR.com but I wanted to announce my time. I came here at 9 months sober when I moved out of my halfway house. Forever grateful to this program for giving me such a wonderful life!!!!! One day at a time!
