I was once lost. Had no hope. Today I no longer feel that way. Today I get to experience a life free from active addiction. A good life and a happy life fiiled with gifts and rewards. I made another video. Doesnt really have much to do with recovery. Only what I have gotten in my recovery. The freedom to go out and do things I love. Like ridding quads. Turn your speakers up. YouTube - TRX450 Honda Rules!!!!!!! I didnt get to do stuff like that when I was smoking Crack. Yeah, I think I'll stick with the quads.

Mike: GREAT VIDEO! I grew up on the Oregon Coast. Lots of familiar pictures there... My wife is my best friend too!

By the way, I saw 12 bald eagles just west of Lebanon headed toward I-5 last week. It was AMAZING!

Thanks for sharing.

I love it here. Unfortuneatly things didnt work out with my GF. Im seeing someone else now. She has some issues. So do I too. But, she can be one person one day, then the next morning for no reason its like I dont even know her? One day she is so sweet and treats me so well. Then the next day she treats me like crap. I eneded it last week, then Friday she called my phone over 40 times in one hour. I had to turn it off. She flooded me with text messages saying she cant live without me. Reluctantly I let her in when she knocked on my door the next day. And of course I gave her another chance. Things were great for 2 days. Monday she was acting weird again. I cant handle any more. She has been clean for 9 months. Last May she made national news. I remember when this happened. I didnt hold it against her when I started seeing her. I thought she had changed. Sad fact is, she hasnt changed. She just stopped doing dope. 3-year-old calls 911: "Mommy and daddy went bye-bye" | Top Stories | FOX11AZ.com | News for Tucson, Arizona If she would do this to her own kids, what would she do to me.

Wow thats sad man, 40 times in one hour = scary. This may affect her sobriety don't let it effect yours. And remember we have all done some real shi!y stuff in our addiction, to bad for her its all over the internet.

Thanks for posting this. I have a tough day ahead with a trigger I can't avoid and I'm on day 4. Inspires me to remember that triggers will come and go, it's how I deal with them that can make the difference between lost in addiction and being strong in recovery.

I have family near Waldport, and I am SOOOO JEALOUS of all the beautiful places they get to experience every single day. (not that NC isn't beautiful.....but different!)

Thanks again!

Yeah, I could have deleted the comment but I left it so people could see the misery of others who are still out doing research.

Very sad day today. I had to issue a restraining order against her this morning. That was not an easy thing to do. I love her very much. But, she is also very sick. I have to take her threats seriously. After talking with family, friends and my sponsor I went to the court house. I dont think I will ever watch that video again. I cant. Please pray for her. She really is a good woman. This really hurts.
