I am sure you are like me and looking forward to being able to state this time next year that you haven't taken a single drink in 2012.

PS: Just thought of a great idea for a smiley that I wanted to put on here, there needs to be one with the smiley getting on a horse!

Itchy: I even questioned myself on the drive over to the store with my friend to buy the wine... like WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! grr.. My instinct said, "No big deal.." when in reality, I should've called for help.. I have a huge list of names and numbers from my AA crew, and I didn't even give them a chance.

So Cal next time you know what to do and will I hope. You have a good sobriety buddy with OV you know. And he with you. You guys keep on posting and learning and before you know it you'll be here like me with more than a year and helping others try to get there. See, I know I am not special or have more strength than you guys. Probably less because I was terrified such that my first quit was my last.

Just remember when your sobriety doesn't count anymore, neither do you.
