May 2nd here in Phoenix. Haha. I remember you used to get your ass kicked by security for taking a picture during a concert. Plus, PUT YOUR PHONE DOWN AND ENJOY THE SHOW!!! In all honesty, I took a few pics when I scored front row at Crüe with my son. That was a great memory.

Good to hear from you, Jimi.

Congrats friends on your sober milestones, one year is almost here for some!

Maybe Bill Cosby coined that phrase. lol

Thanks Joy for contacting me. Sorry you all for not posting for so long. I've had some more stuff come up regarding my health. I told Joy that they are trying to figure out whether a lesion on my spine is bone cancer or not. So, I'm just getting a lot of tests and waiting. I feel ok, just my back hurts. I have a fracture on my vertabrae too.
Then, Gilmer died. I was very good friends with her for a long time. She had cancer, so that has made me feel pretty sad. I don't know if any of you knew her but she was a really special person.
I hope the Fab Febs are doing awesome. At least I am sober and committed to staying that way. When I get a minute, I'll go back and catch up on some of the posts.
Take care all. Much love. ♥

Thank you, Dee. I think I got bucked off one too many horses over the years and I think it's just trauma. It would make sense. You know perhaps, with a lot of doctors, it's hurry up and wait. Ugh.
I appreciate the thought. ♥

cell phones have made concerts sort of annoying. I like to get a short vid and then put the phone away. guaranteed you can find a video of the show that's posted before you even get home, so let someone else make the video. I also find that making a video prevents you from enjoying the show because you're not in the moment.

HI guys! I'm still in this game. #47Strong. Got through a visit with my BFF from San Diego. She and I have been friends for 25 years. Always had the best times, mostly partien!! It wasn't hard to not drink, it was hard that she does, but not alcoholic drinking, but our definitions of a good time are now different. She acted like it didn't bother her, but I know her and it did. So there is that. She left today and it was just a strange visit. Moving along...

Just a quick check in on my one year soberversary. I owe a lot to this group for making it a year. I hope everyone is doing well and not picking up. It’s definitely a struggle sometimes, but it’s worth the fight. Peace.

CYH-Wow!! What a huge milestone. I'm so proud of you. Way to set the example, especially for some drop outs like me. But hey I'm back and I'm determined. Thank you for taking the lead...
