Hope everyone has a wonderful Easter weekend!
Hi L2H. I was just thinking this morning about how grateful I am that I found SR. Without it, I would no doubt have tried to moderate at 6 months (assuming I'd made it that far, of course!)
And I can just imagine where I'd be today

And I'm grateful to my Januarians, too. Please let's not fade away! 15 months is HUGE!!!!

Thanks, HL. I 100% agree about SR teaching me that I just can't go back and "moderate". I'm glad to say I no longer have any real urges. The furt

I've just realised that I'm 15 months sober today! Yippeeeee! That means that most of my fellow Januarians are too - congratulations to us all (and to anyone who doesn't have 15 months but who is still trying)

Hello all

It's my birthday today. I'm 54 and I can honestly say that not a single drop of booze passed my lips while I was 53. Yay!!! And I fully intend this year to be the same.

Hope all of you are doing well. I was taken aback when I read that pianowoman will be 18 months sober in July - and then I realised that I will be, too!

Happy times! ♥♥♥

Hi all

Just wanted to say hello and to get us bumped back to the top for a few minutes!

I hope everyone is doing well - almost 16 months sober for me (and many of you, too). Go us!!!
