Holy smokes artsoul, your 1 -year sober birthday and my 30th birthday are on the same day! It's a great day full of meaning for both of us!

Many congratulations on your achievements this past year. This site has been so wonderful, and I'm very proud and thankful I've been able to share this journey with you.

Just as I was typing this, my fiancee was watching Beverly Hills 90210, and Kelly said, "A lot can happen in a year." I was literally sitting here thinking of what to type next, and a TV character said it for me. That was either spooky or powerful.

But yeah, a lot can happen in a year. It's been a year of changes for both of us, and we're both different people, and we owe so much of that to SR and the wonderful people here that help us every day.

I hope you have a wonderful day! You deserve to!

Hey ARTSOUL! That's really great! I was one of last year's Mayflowers, and I remember you were one of those who were the most inspiring and certainly the most dedicated. I'm happy for you. Wish I had followed in your shoes...I'm a year late now, but I'll tag along a year late.
