You're welcome. Glad I could help. I think they might have learned some stuff. There are times when we feel like the only one going through struggle. At least they know they're not alone.

Yeah my birthday is tomorrow. Doubt I'll do anything to celebrate it. Especially this year I'm not really in a celebration type of mood. But I do hope 37 treats me better than 36 did. Looking back it was a shitty year, at least most of it was. Doubt I'll ever forget it though.

Well! HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY!!!!! :wd::yay::day5::groupluv::moon:


Well, look at it this way.. Chances are your 37th year is going to be a whole hell of alot better than your 36th! Your still SO young. really. Im 42... Eww, now thats old!

Look as the turning of the year as a turning over of a new you! Your 37th year of life could be the best year of your life ever!!! You definately know yourself a whole lot better now, Im sure it will just get better and better (so they say)


You should do something. Go out to a nice dinner and order a huge steak or something!

Thanks! 42s not old. My girlfriend turns 42 next week. I do know myself a lot better now. And the positives in my life out weigh the negative. But its still easier for me to look at the negative. I'm getting there slowly. I can already feel tomorrow could be bad. Definatly going to have to take it ODAT. I almost just feel like hiding away from the world tomorrow. I know I can't though. Just have to ride out the bad day. Funny I don't even know if its going to be bad.

Yeah 37 is a new year. That's how I'm looking at it. A new start.

I know your trying to stay positive. Just do the best that you can do. Perhaps your family will want to do something to help celebrate?

Hey, you never know. Wouldnt it be something if you got a call from you know who? You never know, lets see what tommorrow brings.

I never knew this smiley existed until now...:bum::moon: Come on, I know that made you smile!

Yeah I'm trying to stay positive. That's all I can do. I'm sure my parents will do something. Not the same though.

I'd be amazed to get a text from her tomorrow. Not counting on that though. I'll just see what tomorrow brings like you said. That smiley did make me smile. Thanks.

Hey SK8, patience is your key now, she must be starting to get curious now. Don't worry if she doesn;t text you tomorrow, mine didn't for my birthday but that's because her solicitor told her not to under any circumstances have any contact with me, chin up dude, its going to be ok, I feel it.
My thing is on Friday now cause she couldn't make it Thursday - suits me better anyhow as I have loads of meetings Thursday.
Have a wonderful afternoon.

Hey Wanna. I know I'll survive. Just another test. You are right I need to be patient right now. I'm really glad you reminded me of that. Last thing I need to do is something stupid.
Hope everything goes good on your meeting Friday. I wish only the best for you.

Kind of wish something would happen today. Maybe something good for a change. Not gonna hold my breath though.

something good has happened today. your here, your sober, thats fantastic

Thanks for the birthday wishes Spuddle. I know the positives out number the negative in my life now. I am very thankful for my sobrity and my friends here.
Its the lonliness that I battle from time to time. I'm going to try to have a good birthday for myself. The past is the past and that shouldn't control my today. Easier said then done sometimes but I'll be alright

I suppose you are right. I don't actually want to BE 29, just LOOK 29.

You got a point there. I've been lucky that way so far *knocks on wood*. I don't look my age. I guess most people think I'm in my late 20's early 30's. When I drank I always got carded while younger people didn't.
I don't feel 36. Especially now that I'm sober. Maybe its because I've remained young at heart and mind.
