PS I also plan on picking up that book at a local book store when I get a chance. It would be fantastic to go through it with you.

Take Care,

Thanks again to each & everyone of you for making my birthday soooo special!

It was wonderful to be able to be at peace throughout the day, sober.

Again.....

I'm blessed.

I'd like to point out a "detail" of my sobriety.

I quit drinking May 4th 2001, but had this "idea" (my own program, developed by me) that I was "sober", yet not clean since I had a marijuana maintainence program going on for 14 months.

I even took a cake in AA at "one year".

The fact is I was not sober as my sponsor (I finally had one by now) pointed out. In recovery, sobriety means taking nothing that effects me from the neck up!

SO I reset my sobriety date to the 4th of July 2002, the first day I was truly sober.
