Well, today I am really learning to accept what I cannot change, for it is, NATIONAL CHOCOLATE COVERED INSECT DAY. And yuck.

Here for 24 more. Let me know if you eat a chocolate covered insect.

Boston MA 9:06 am.

I ate a chocolate covered ant in 2nd grade. Somebody brought in an assortment of 4 different kinds: all I remember are ants and caterpillars! I remember thinking, "Squishy caterpillars--No, I just can't go that far!"

Congratulations, everybody!

So sorry, ForgiveMeAll, but you're on the right road. Drinking would only keep you trapped.

It's 6:27 here and I need 24 more hours of sobriety. I'd like to congratulate the milestoners and, everyone else on another day of sobriety.

I went for a long walk yesterday and, muck like Toots said in her her posting, I'm finding out that I might just like myself. Starting to look at life as a worthwhile journey.

Wi-Fi router has been out of service so I wasn't able to log-in over the weekend.

A friend died over the weekend while awaiting a liver and kidney for transplantation. He had diabetes and NASH ( a non-alcoholic liver hepatitis disease with much the same symptoms and progression as alcoholic liver disease); the end was traumatic; let's take care of our livers, friends.

Sorry for the downbeat post.

In for another 24.

Go soberly, all, and in love and peace.

Many awesome words of impressiveness and gratitude to all of our milestoners today- whether it be days, weeks, months or years. It all starts with the first day- and we see that on this thread. Thanks to Courage2 today, for keeping track of us all.

Wow, Milestoners. Take a bow.

You do us proud.

I fell off last week and blacked out from Monday night into Thursday morning.

Was going 66 days strong until a couple Saturdays ago and just couldn't contain my lust for drink.


Sober since the 8th and here to say hi.

I'm in St. Paul, MN and it's 10:55.

Hey BarbieKen - if you're handing out chips, I like sour cream/onion ones. Hee Hee

Congrats to everyone!

I've suited up and I'm showing up today! Wahoo!
