Congrats on 15 days...I still too have my moments many, but we are sober and strong and capable...so happy you can see life more clearly. It will only get easier and easier...so they tell me lol and they have not steered me wrong. This place is amazing and it is amazing because of all the incredible understanding men and women who are here. I feel at home here and I love it.

I have heard we never forget and I guess that is a great thing because it reminds us of what we dont want. Thank you for the congrats...they are only 11 but I own them and I earned them...lol..woohoo. You my friend earned each and everyone of those 1209 days and you are awesome. I am sure you have learned much in that time. I will remember 1209 when I get there and think of this moment. I honestly will. Sounds funny I know but the little things in life touch me. ok Big things too lol

Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah!! Don't know why the tourette's kicked in but it did. Thank you Missing for keeping things in perspective. The enthusiasm you're showing this early in recovery is keeping me humble. We're only alive for a very brief period in time and in active use we never fully take advantage of what life naturally has to offer. You're already seeing the sun through the clouds and the forest thru the trees. That to me is the most amazing thing. Keep the sight picture that you're focused in on and run with it.
Last nights conversation was really good. I had a lot of fun BS'n with youse in chat lol. Hopefully we can do it again sooner than later. Keep it up you're doing great! So is everyone else in here. There's a lot of good people who still suffer this disease that never make it to this page. Well i'll talk to you in a bit!! WHOOT WHOOT Congrats again on Day 12
