6 months sober yesterday!
I feel much better sober.

Six months ago I was homeless, unemployed, living with a man who hit me, had no contact with my small children...today I have a great job, a car, an apartment and see my kids on a regular basis. And the man I was with is in jail for DUIs.

God showed up in a big way 6 months ago! This really is a better way of life.

WOW! Talk about miracles! Congratz & so happy for you. And an Aerosmith fan to boot!
I always liked "the reason the dog has so many friends he wags his tail instead of his toungue!" From 'Done with Mirrors' CD.
