    Taking the Liberty to start a thread for Whoosh

    Gave up drinking 23 years ago & had my fourth son who has Autism, went to America to learn how to teach him. Spent the next 10 years running a home programme with him & learning how to love myself.
    Went back into business (I run a Car Performance Centre) 5 years ago ( marriage hit a rough patch) I started drinking again (Scotch is my Demon). Today I am on my eighth day AF.
    I'm praying that this is the end of the booze forever as my brain & body can't take any more.
    Hobbies have gone with the Scotch, but I used to Swim go to the Gym, Bike, sew etc etc
    :thanks:Thanks for this thread it helped me to share

      Hey there Whoosh!
      Welcome!
      I can relate to what you said about hobbies.
      Now's the chance to start them afresh; or some new ones.
      Good luck to you

            :welcome:Whoosh!

            I too love to go to the gym and do a H2o class!
            I go 3-5 days a week.
            I have found that is something I really enjoy and it is just for ME!
            I'm a mother of three, grandmother of four and hope for a couple more before I get too old to play with them!
            :goodjobn AF days!

              Hello and Welcome Whoosh
              I am glad that you have decided to join us. I am soon to be 47 (ouch). I have three kids; all in their 20's. No grandchildren yet, but hopefully, someday. I drank only once in 10 years from 1989-1999, but let death, divorce, etc....take me back out there. Since that time, I have been AF for short periods of time; One and half years being the longest stretch since 1999. This site has helped me immensely. I go to AA as well. I am divorced and my kids are grown. I have only lived in this town for a year, so I really need to make some sober friends. Best wishes as you begin your journey.
