Hi all,

It's been awhile since I last posted, if I'm being honest it's due to laziness in my efforts for sobriety. I have become a little lax in my work!

So here I am, I AM STILL SOBER! YAY!

I have 8 months of sobriety this Thursday.

I have had a couple of hurdles and have many more to overcome , some which I hope to lean on you kind folks for some advice in the near future!!

For those of you just starting out please hang in there, there is life after addiction and it is goooood!!!

I am someone who is receovering from a 20+ yr alcohol addiction and it got really bad especially healthwise, but I took each day, each minute as it came. Turned things around!

NOW: I am a better mom, wife, daughter, sister, friend and an all around better ME!

I feel so much more comfortable with who I am now and am grateful to let go of who I was.

Just hang in there folks!!! It's totally worth it!!

Thanks for your inspirational words. After 27 days, I'm getting a slow peek into the world of sobriety - and I love it. No going back, ever! Really great to hear your positivity, thanks.
