Very happy for you grampa - I'm so glad you found us too. Great job on reaching 2 wks. It'll continue getting better.

Your doing it Grampa ! Congradulations.
I'am with you at about 2 weeks also. I'am starting to see "peeks" through the gray curtain of depression now and then. How about you ?
Sobriety is getting better...day by day !...hope your's is too !

Great post.
Sometimes it's hard, but I'm glad that you're finding gratitude in your day.
