Smile One Year today

It feels good! While my life is certainly trying at the moment, it's much better without the constant daily obsession to use or drink.

I don't pretend to know what it's like for anyone else, but I hope that seeing that at least one person can do it for 365 days in a row, that someone else will not give up. There IS HOPE and every single solitary sober day counts!

Onward.....

Thanks everyone!

It's been a nice quiet day. Just the way I like it! Will pick up my year chip at an alumni meeting on Monday with two women and two men who I went through rehab with. We've come a long day since that first week when we all met are were completely messed up, physically, spiritually and emotionally!

Recovery Rocks!

Mega Congratulations!! We all start out on day 1's, and hopefully progress from there. Your a fine example of turning it into day 365!! You should be proud.



Best Wishes To You!
