I got a sponsor!

Finally!

I think she's going to be awesome. She was one of the women who took me aside when I was shaking in my boots at my first meeting. She also has gone through a divorce and has a 2.5 year old daughter. And one thing I like about her is that she is always smiling. They say your sponsor should be someone who has what you want. She told me that if I work the Steps with her, I'll finally be able to turn off all the voices in my head. I want that.

I really needed this because it's been a rough couple days. I think this is going to be a monumental thing for me and for my recovery.

Congratulations on your sobriety and congratulations on getting yourself a sponsor. It took me awhile to get a sponsor, but I picked the best one for me. Keep up the good work.
