And on a lighter note, may I just say that your picture of yourself is quite becoming? I just love your sweet, white, furry cute-ness. The blue background brings out your eyes. I just want to pick you up, snuffle your tummy, and give you kisses. I've never seen such beautiful, soft, snow-white adorableness.

Good for you for staying in! Valentines Day is just a way for florists and chocolate companies to make money. I know I don't need a special day to feel that I can eat some really good chocolate. You know what me and my man did? Went to Charlie Browns for dinner and were home in bed by 8:30. How is that for some exciting romantic night???? And when I say in bed I mean ready to go to sleep. Don't need to get caught up in all the valentines drama, highly overrated!
So glad you did the right thing. Don't you feel better about it?

Thank you all so much. I know this hasn't been the first time I've done this and I thank you all so much for not giving up on me or shaking your head in disgust.
"S*** or get off the pot already!" is maybe what some of you and the people in A.A. I've met over the years are thinking.
I think if there's one thing I could tell someone who wants to drink after being sober is that it just gets much worse. Even though I am not in A.A., I love the saying "A.A. turns you into a bad drunk". It's true. Recovery turns you into a bad relapser.
There is a magic in recovery that I cannot describe or even quite put my finger on. Things have begun to happen to me spiritually, right under my nose, that I often don't see, some of it feels great and some of it feels really awful.
And I think I need to remember to just let it happen.
There's no use in drinking, no need, it's just not 'in style' anymore where I am now.
Same goes for smoking (I really want to quit that once and for all as well).
Anyway, thank you all for making this possible.
