    Happy 8 years today Lav

    Congratulations and well done to you..always there to help people in your own inimitable way,you are a star..well done to you.. :welldone::rara::sendflowers::celebrate:

    8 years in, now that’s a long time,
    Since Lav said nope to drinkin the wine
    This crap gets me down in every way.
    Methinks boozing s over Im callin it a day

    A stressful job bein a nurse,
    The need for a drink its made so worse,
    Dealin with folks and all that pressure..
    It’s over booze man, I’ve got yer measure

    So dogs chickens and kids.. oh and even YB,
    Reap the benefit of her being a non drinkee,
    A happier person, she says so hersel..
    Since she told the boozeman to go to hell.

    Now Lavs been on site it seems to me,
    Since Washington said” I didn’t axe no tree,”
    She has helped folks quit from everywhere,
    A no nonsense lady, but she really does care

    I’ve written this verse with some humour and wit ,
    Hope you like it Lav.. else Im in the sh.t,
    From all you’ve helped here and there’s loads, that’s true
    Congratulations, well done and a big thank you

            Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

                      @Lavande on your huge soberversary today! No words can express how much we all appreciate what you do here, but I think [MENTION=17668]Mick[/MENTION] summed up what we're all thinking today!

                      Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
                      Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
                      Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

                          But let me sit down and give it some time.

                          My heart and my gratitude go out to you!

                          Thank you for pulling me out of the pit.
