Well, today is Wednesday, six days from last Thursday when my phone stopped working. I went this week to various tech places and it seems that there is an outage just in my little village. So, I couldn't call this morning without riding my bike into the nearest town. I called but the intake guy was busy. I explained my phone situation and asked when I could expect a call back, it was not until this afternoon. So I headed home, with the plan of riding back into town later to wait for the call. He ended up calling on my way back but we got cut off. But the little I got was that the total free rooms (shared room, bathroom in the hall) would be available the end of March, beginning of April. The rooms you pay for are available next week. We shall see.

Smart move. Not to scare you, but I've known several people who have died from alcoholism and each one of them have one thing in common. They died when they were on the relapse part of a vicious cycle they were stuck in that consisted of a few months of not drinking followed by a three or four day binge. Rinse repeat. They all died during one of their brief binges.
Glad you have made this healthy choice. I think everyone here is rooting for you. Best of luck to you. You can do this.

Just thinking how much I wish Bill was here to share the news. He would be so happy for me. I remember his unwavering support the first time I went. He liked seeing pictures of the area as he had visited Florence. He would sometimes send me special requests for photos during my outings. There was one church he really loved and asked me about often but I could never find it. I think I'll go back through my old thread and look for the name and make it a goal to find it this time.

Mera, so happy you've settled on a plan. I'm so impressed and admiring of you and know that your sweet friend Bill would be/will be cheering you on. I think it's a great idea to find some of his favorite spots to remind you that he's walking with you, and wishing you the best always, as are we all!
