Just popping in to wish all who are starting out, or starting over good wishes. Giving yourself the gift of sobriety is the perfect way to kick off the holiday season!!

Well, I had 35 days, but drank (in bed before sleep, but to excess) twice in November. Even though I stopped 8 days ago in November, I would like to join this group.

Hello December!! I'm on Day 4.

Robinson - I'm not sure about AA meetings online but there are Recovery Podcasts you can listen to!

Fortress - Good to see you! 35 days is great and you can do it again.

I will not drink today. I would like to join this group to help me.

I want to make promises, but I'd just disappoint people. I won't drink today though.

Having to drive home in a little under an hour, that will be a big test. I can do it.

I'm on day 1. I went 16 years without drinking and fell. Battled it again for 5-6 years. I am glad I found this forum.

Tired this 3 years ago... and it just didn't work out for me at that time. A lot has changed since then. I'm back on day 9 (personal best since 30 days back in 2012).... & feeling fine! :-)

Thanks Anna & Delilah

Welcome Fortress, Robinson, Applekat, Merigold, asixstringnut, Tony, Finallygotout, Abriella and Mulligan

Robinson there are online AA meetings.

I've never used any, but I'd probably Google to get an idea of how many options you have?

Hope you guys can make this month your month

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone. I come from the March '16 class, but also joined November '16 which has crept into December already. Well, crap. Not gonna throw in the towel, tho. I'm way too stubborn!
