I Made 90 Days

At long last, I made 90 days. Yay me and my higher power!

I've been at this since the first of this year. I got 40 days twice, fell on my face twice, and then I really dove into AA. Got a great sponsor, worked the steps, went to well over 90 meetings in that time, continued to check in here at SR. I think the best thing I did was take phone numbers at AA meetings and really created a network of people I could call when I was feeling low or anxious. They were extremely helpful.

And of course, my higher power was the biggest help. When I turned my self-will over to him, very good things started to happen.

Thanks to everyone at Sober Recovery who helped me. That's like, everyone here at Sober Recovery. :ghug3:ghug3

There's a whole group of people coming up behind me. Make way!

Negative Man - I am so very happy for you. You have always been an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for taking care of yourself first, but then always looking for those around you.

Way to go NM!!! It's amazing how recovery works great when we put ourselves into it! It took me a while to figure it out, too

Hugs and prayers!

Congratulations Negman!! I have enjoyed being 8 days (steps) behind you on this road. You are truly inspirational and I love the threads you have started which have led me along the way. You keep giving us all goals and that is something this girl needs. I can't fathom SR without you my friend. Congratulations again!!

We need a "rock on" icon! :ghug3
