Day 12 here. I have a bunch of work to do today at my folks' house, building a new flower bed, stacking 3 cords of wood, and chipping a bunch of limbs/brush, Im hoping to get at least some of it done, with periodioc check-ins to SR. Have a great day everyone.

. Yup, no fronts and no credit around here. You have to earn those days one day at a time.

I'd say welcome to the July 2008 club, but I haven't got my membership approved yet.
Probably served me. I lived there for 5 yrs. I stayed in Norcross, Douglasville, Dallas, Kennesaw, Temple, I get around.

Wow, looking at that list blows me away. I was looking at it last night too. I am so proud of each and every single one of you. We all share a bond here and we are doing this together. Last night was rough, but much of it was physical too. I really ran myself down the last nine months. Plus, I had only slept 2 hours the night before so that probably played a role in it too. Anyway, I managed to get a full straight 8 hrs of sleep last night and feel much better today.

I was behind bars from downtown to Buckhead to Sandy Springs and Dunwoody, 1980 to about 1997, and from restaurants to beer joints to discos to high-falutin' piano bars, so maybe we crossed paths, maybe not.

Very true. I almost missed my meeting last night cause I was playing around on here. Theres got to be a happy medium. I've been on here a lot since I got clean and its really helped, but there is a world outside of the internet. And its not just SR for me. I am a youtube junkie, I belong to 11 Quad/ATV forums, Yes, 11 thats not a typo But pretty much only post at one. I visit myspace from time to time, but its really not my thing.

I was there then. Mostly Topless places on Fulton Industrial (I used to be kinda wild and pretty much a bad boy) What was the after hours place? Chrystal Palace? Im a Commercial Painter and did a lot of work Downtown and in Buckhead. Probably painted half of Underground Atlanta.

This is really encouraging. There are so many people adding so many good things and having fun. I do not know how to have fun anymore and I do not know why? I am going to do the steps. My sponsor is having me read up to the top of page 64 and highlight anything that applies to me.

I then have to go over it with her then I do not know what is next. But I am looking forward to getting rid of my spiritual sickness that does not leave for a moment. I am depressed and never was before.

I can totally relate. I have some errands to run and will be back later, but would like to chat. Hang in there.

This is my first post.

Sunday, July 13 would've been my 90th day, had I not picked up and gone on a 6 day binge. So I relapsed in July, but I'd also like to think I got sober in July, because now I have 6 days back.

Sober date: July 17, 2008

No No NO - Im gonna stomp my foot till ya change my date till the 19th.... It may have been the 20th for me but I think Im the only kiwi on that list! You all will forget the extra day that you guys werent born yet through!

Weird confusing I know - but if you list me as the 20th July - all Americans will think I only at 3 days, wheras I am actually at 4 it justs that I live in the future timezone!!!! Does that make any sense???? lol
