21 months today!

In the beginning of my recovery this time around, I would never have imagined I would make it this far sober. One day at a time with the help of AA and all of you make it possible.
This is about twice as long as the most consecutive time I had previously.
The difference this time around is that I know I belong here and I am working the 12 steps of AA.
Peace to all!

That alone is HUGE. Add the 12 steps and that is Double HUGE.

Congrats and thank you for sharing your success with us, just one day at a time.

Hey Tom, I know what you mean about that sense of belonging.
I finally feel that way, too. God Bless and congrats.
Love Rowan

Tom,
That is such a wonderful testament to your sobriety. It's hard to take in the big picture...so much easier to take it one day at a time. Congratulations.
