Congratulations, I'm so happy for you. 3 years is fantastic.
We share the same sobriety date. 1 had one year yesterday.
I tried to start a thread for myself for the past 24 hours to celebrate 1 year but have been unable to, it keeps giving me an error.
enjoy your celebrations.

Wow, thank you all very much!!! I had a huge smile on my face and laughed out loud at some of the cute posts. This really made my day.
Casey, I laughed out loud at you knowing me before I was a hippopotamus, lol.
Bunny, I love that hippo.
Dharma, Mr. Rogers!! Haha, he got me through my surgery recovery back in January!
Mesa, I love that Kool & The Gang song.
Thank you all!!! I love it.
I'm about to have cinnamon cake and a cup of chai. Then maybe a candlelit bubble bath. I have worked hard outside in the garden center all day. It's time to relax and celebrate. After my cake and chai, I'll probably have a big glass of seltzer and blood orange juice on the rocks.

Sometimes I write in my mind before my fingers can get to the keyboard. So, today, at work, this morning, actually, I was writing a response to this thread. It's short and sweet. But it's from my heart.
The support and friendship I've experienced here at SR were crucial to me in early sobriety. I know we all feel and know that SR is a special place, but it was ... paramount in my early recovery to experience acceptance, understanding, empathy, and friendship here in a protected environment. I'd become completely fearful, discouraged, distrusting, anxious, angry, and even paranoid in the latter part of my alcohol addiction. With your support and caring, I got sober and stayed sober. I experienced the grieving process I needed to let go of my mother. I somehow half-blindly made my way through the first four years of my marriage, lol. I adopted two dogs and made it through some emergency situations with the puppy. Again, you all were there. I buried my 20-year old cat recently. And I made it through jaw surgery. You all held my hand through it all. With tears in my eyes and with a happy feeling in my heart, I want to say: THANK YOU
XOXO,
Jennie
