Thanks everyone! Your encouragement means a lot to me.
BBJ - I joined MWO in 2004 and had 6 Yrs sober but decided I could moderate last year so spent some time wrestling the AL beast. Sooooo glad I'm back on track and life is really good again! I'll never wonder if I'm able to manage a drink here and there or just socially ever again. I'm an old wino and now amount of trying will change that. I'm not missing out on a thing by being abstinent - I only miss out when I do drink.
This place is just such a wonderful support and I'm so grateful to have found it way back in 2004.
Hugs to all!!!

Yep, I remember us being the new kids on the block Tawny. I didn't stay once I was sober for a while - I guess I should have! I didn't try modding for too long and I'm glad about that. Hugely disappointed I did try though, and throw away 6 years and have to start at day one again! Never mind, all good learning I suppose and no looking back now!It is not what we do, but how much love we put into the doing.

AWESOME!!! YOU ROCK! Thanks for the inspiration! I'm 2 weeks today and hope to be in your shoes in a few months...PAVE THE WAY!!!Whatever you invest in the circle of LIFE is what comes back to you. Multiplied. What you give to people is what they eventually give back to you. Don't do the math. Just increase your LOVE.
BE HAPPY...BE CONNECTED...BE HEALTHY! :h

Thanks everyone! Although I've done it before this feels soooo good and it's interesting to really consider how I feel this time. The two biggest things are feeling safe and relieved. It was pretty scary wondering if I would ever get my sober life back..... Trying to moderate was really quite frightening. The old ways and the weird and 'wonderful' thinking took hold so very, very quickly!!!!! I would seriously NEVER recommend giving it a try!
I am so grateful to ALL of you. I never ask for help in 'real' life but here it is different and I would not have ever experienced my first chance of getting dry, let alone this second blessed opportunity without this support and care!!!!!!
Blonde - you'll be at 180 before you know!!!!!
Love and love, Nicey.
XXXXXXOOOOOOIt is not what we do, but how much love we put into the doing.

Nicey - :goodjob: on 180 days AF.
Well done and good for you on coming back to MWO when you needed to. 6 years AF is no small feat. It's good us to remember that AL will always be there to tempt us but also good for us to remember that once AF, we have to stay that way and guard our sobriety against all odds. Thank you for sharing your story with us.For every 60 seconds that you are angry, you lose a minute of happiness.
AF since 10/10/2015:yay:
