Newbies Nest Roll Call

I will join for May. I quit March 11 and have lost track of the AF days. I have not lost track of the cravings though and I am attending three weddings this month.

Tap...tap.....tapTapTAP! Can everybody hear me? Hello? HELLO???? Oh, ok. May I have your attention? The chef has informed me we are out of the chicken....what? Oh, sorry. We have some awards to give out! Will the following people please stand up?!
AllanKay......Kuya......Fin.

On September 1, 2012 two people came to this site and it's never been the same since. Neither have these 2 people. Allan, his wit and quick, sharp posts are such an asset to read. He is an example of how lifechanging this whole getting sober thing can be. He lost weight, started running races, landed a new job...and still offers encouragement to us all. I understand he is a real cutie as well. Congratulations on 8 months sober!!!

Same day, half a world away, comes Kuya. Kuya says there are no coincidences, but how did 2 such wonderful people come to the same site in the same day and have such success on their first real quit!??? Whatever it was, we've all benefited from it. I always look for your posts....because you go looking for the people that need it. You are the person here in the middle of the night when someone has hit rock bottom. Your posts to new people are so valuable. There is NO TELLING how many folks you have really helped here. Thank you for being a life saver. Well done on your 8 months!
Please accept this award for getting that CRAZY MONKEY off your backs!!!
:crazymonkey:

Fin! The man who taught me to use paragraph breaks (still working on that, BTW). It is with really great pride that we bestow this coveted prize to you!!
My dear, your hat!

:day5:

Wear it loud and proud, my friend!! YOU EARNED IT! We are all so proud of you, we could bust (oops, that's a different award). Here's to a lifetime of sobriety!! Thank you for being here and offering your gifts of song and humor and strength to us all. We are so glad you're here!

As always, if you have some words on how you achieved these wonderful accomplishments, our Newbies (hells bells, the Oldbies) are all ears. THIS IS YOUR DAY!!! ENJOY IT! Well done!!!
The Staff

Ok, I have a correction to make. This is actually only day 29 for me. For some reason I always think Fin and I have the same number of days but I am actually a day behind. So sorry! I'll celebrate 30 days tomorrow!
