Merry Christmas SR family

Woke up this morning and now am waiting for my boys to do the same (ahh how things change on Christmas morning). While sitting here I began to think about each of you. We have the common thread of one another even though our circumstances may be different. We all know what it is like to have addiction in our lives. We are so fortunate to have come together and have a safe place to share our fears, concerns, heartaches, and our successes and joys.

So....merry Christmas to all of my "family". May you each have a wonderful day whether that means the comfort of simply making it through it or actually enjoying it.

Today, I'm not thinking about what I wish that I had (only makes me miserable) but being grateful for what I do have.....my boys, each of you, the sunlight breaking through the bare limbs of the tree, my aged dog that can't hear, good health, no one being ugly to me (xhusband) or raining on my parade.

Love to each of you....

Merry Christmas to all of my SR friends and family! Everyone here has brought me such peace and comfort, and allowed me to realize joy and light that I thought was gone from my life. I truly cannot thank you all enough.

(((Interbear))) - thank you for saying what I could not express into words. When I first joined SR, some posters gave me comfort (Thank you Ann, Kindeyes, Laurie, Lightseeker, and Amy) any others gave me more anxiety, lol. (Thank you Cynical One, Anvil, Incitingsilence, Outtolunch, and Dollydo. I am sending you all my therapy bills, lol). But...it was a great combination for me. Some had to shake me out of denial and face the truth while others passed me the Kleenex with a gentle nod.

I honestly don't know what I would have done without SR and all the members that have helped me through the pain, the tears, the denial and even the laughter. God ha a plan and finding SR was part of it. You have all been such a Godsend. Thank you! :ghug3

Boy LMN! Did you sum that up or what! I needed that combo too - being shaken out of denial and then having the kleenex handed to me with a gentle nod. Well put....

I often think of the grace bestowed upon me by stumbling across this site and figuring out which of the forums was "my home" with my family.
