Awwwwwwwwwww Hope leave it to you to remember. You have come so far sweetie, and believe it or not taught me a lot also. Your struggles have helped me better understand some of my sponsees and work better with them.

Why thank you all very much.

Storm I got sober in the San Fernando Valley, lol all those long years ago. whatever it was they hae there, IT STUCK, lmao. Please feel free to PM me anytime. I will help if I can.

You know, I have to tell you all, that your ES&H helps me as much as you say mine helps you. That is part of what recovery for me is about. Giving freely of what worked for me.

I won't glorify sobriety and tell you that all 27 years have been wonderful. There have been several years, and periods of months that have SUCKED big time. However, for me recovery is about NOT RUNNING from the bad things, and the bad feelings, but walking through them.

So I thank you all, and with some luck and the help of my HP......................................next year this time will be 28. roflmao

Hope y'all have a great Sunday tomorrow and a great week too for that matter.

Love and hugs,

How awesome is that...I'm fairly new to this site and haven't had the pleasure of your ES&H yet (I'm eligible too, right?). I'm sure you did it one day at a time just like the rest of us. That is comforting to me. One day at a time, not years or months, or decades. Sometimes just minutes. Congratulations on your happy destiny.

Wow! It looks like you got sober about the same time I started my career! I wish I had known you then, it would have saved me a lot of grief! (If I would have listened, anyway)

I haven't had the honor, either of hearing your ES&H, but, I just want to say

Thanks for showing us the way and letting us all know that we can do this deal together. Thanks for all the help that you have given to me personally either by the forums or by the phone you are truly a blessing to many of us.

Happy Birthday!
