Two-Year Anniversary of Hands Across Time Zones

On January 10, 2006, the following post introduced a thread which reached out to alcoholics/addicts in every corner of the world.

Because SR slows down during the wee-hours of U.S. time, some of the folks "across the pond" feel the need for speed (not that kind)...just somewhere there's a bit more action/sharing during their six-hour time difference.

This thread could also be helpful to those (like myself) who are up 2 - 3 times during the night. Or, those night owls who don't hit the sack until way past midnight.

This is the place to share...whenever...whatever!

It would be wonderful if all the "charter members" of HATZ would join us in marking the occasion...plus any others who care to join in the celebration. THE MORE THE MERRIER!:ghug

I just "skimmed through" the 900 posts in Part 1, and IM'ed the original 30 HATZ'ers.


What a fun time that was...and, so much has happened for all of us since then...good, bad, and somewhere in between! I do hope everyone will drop by.

I got your IM, Indigo...I think the reason I'm "full" is because of all the IM's I sent out...don't know how that works; but, apparently everyone is getting "the message".

Happy 2 years, HATZers!!

Hope all are well.......I still think of Etimee, Penguin, Dreamz, Scotty, Max, Paula....and of course, RAE!

I am doing well, and am pretty happy in life right now. The HATZers will always hold a spot in my heart.

Much love,
Jane

Just spoke to her the other day, as a matter of fact. You know she took our 10-year-old dog, Jenny, when I had to enter the home, and son John went to rehab...bless her HATZ'er heart!

Welcome back to Jersey, CLV!!!

So good to "see" you again, Jane!!!
