Thanks Sherry. My very own thread, started by someone else, that's a feel good thang, definitely.
The guys at my 7 am gave me a token. I'm just about ashamed of only 2 months though. I had 7 then screwed up on my Earth B-day in November. But it's better than being drunk. I wish I could get some good continuous time, but I have to remember where I was a year ago- trying to kill myself with booze and drugs basically.
There is a buddy in my workshop that started same time as I did. He had 8 months, went out, and no one has seen or heard from him in a month! That really worries me. So I'm greatful today that at least I know to get my butt right back here and in meetings if I have a 'bad experience' as I like to call them.
Read all about my AA Men's retreat in the Substance Abuse forum under I'm ALIVE.
Peace,

Your welcome Michael. Hey, give that stick you've been beating yourself up with..... 
So you had 7 months, I had 9. We didn't lose what we learned in those months, which is why we were smart enough to get our butts back. I've seen a lot of people go back out and not come back. I read about someone that was murdered over a crack deal gone bad. I was in detox with him. This disease kills, and I need to remind myself of that A LOT!

I want to thank you now for the support that you have given me here Michael. I also want to let you know that is really doesn't matter where we have been but it really matters is where we are going. You can not change the past just like I can not change it. But what we do today is all that matters. Anyway isn't it the person who gets up the earliest has the most sobriety? I got up at 5:30 today. Blessings to you on your special day..
Love Vic

y'know gang, I thought it was so neat that my sobriety date and earth bday were the same, that I forgot about that day on Dec 22. So I'd gone out right before my earth bday in Nov 8, and also the night before my Mom's funeral anniversary in Dec.
I had honestly forgotten about it. Luckily I'd posted it under I'm alive and someone graciously pointed it out. I didn't mean to be dishonest.
So there's no celebration. Perhaps moderator could just delete this thread. Sorry.
