Glad you're back, TPM! If it was easy there'd be no such thing as alcoholism, but it's easier with friends.

It takes a big person to fess up to their foibles . You've helped me by doing so. Thank you.

That I need to modify my plan, get more support, BIG time
That I must stay out of threads that trigger me emotionally ;-)

Someones wise told me that only my pride was keeping me from coming back. Dee, Anna, you were appointed to your SR ambassador positions for a good reason. To keep idiot like me out of trouble. LOL!

I have put a knee down once again, but I still have a sobriety fight left in me.

Self pity, and self beating is useless for me right now, but a few gentle slaps always welcome.
Glad you are back Pat, when I first came to SR you were one of the people I generally followed reading your posts, you gave me motivation to carry on this battle.

Yikes! Just woke up and saw all the posts.
All I can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My mission resumes, get sober and help the ones struggling as much as I can ;-)

Of course JimJim, I am sorry for the incident as well and apologize Sincerely.

Our addictions royal rumbled but I'm sure we have many things in common other than this ;-)

We both learned and I am happy to be your friend.

Take care JimJim

I am so very glad and relieved you posted. I actually PM someone because I was reading a thread and noticed you had left.

No slaps from me, but a big hug. Please don't feel you have to leave here because you relapsed.

You belong here and you are needed here.

Glad you came back Patman. You can do this and we are here for you.

No slap but how about a pat on the back.

(((((((Patman)))))). Thank goodness you came back.

I echo LeTheVerte. Put me on your PM list for the next time you feel triggered.
