Just wanted to say Happy 4th to all the good people here.
Thanks for being here so many times when I needed you.

2. Yes, it does for me.

My anniversary is truly my independence day from alcohol, drugs and the crazy attitude
that went along with them.

I really, really love being sober.

the local treatment center brought a bunch of their folks over so we hung out and played board games and yakked up a storm and ate like little piggies :rofl:

All the best to you a day at a time.


Actually, fifths used to make me really happy right up to the point where I passed out.

11. And now it's happy 7/7/7
Oops! Should have waited three hours to post this, but I need to be at the farmer's market by 7:00.

Holy cow! I'm planning on being awake at 7:00 on Saturday? Thank you, AA!

12. I was often *still* awake at 7 am on Saturday.
But definitely not on the way to the farmer's market. Get some fresh maters for me, 'k? Mine aren't in yet :(
