I need a reality check. Do I sound like the abs police? I don't mean to, & I know this forum is 30 day (emphasis 30 day) abs. There isn't much interaction on the long-term abs forum, & I don't feel qualified (w/only 17 days of sobriety) to be there anyway. Also, I can't give up my 30 day community. What I'm trying to say is this: I can't drink, but that doesn't mean many of you out there can't get a handle on it & mod some day. Total abs is not for everyone...I just wanted to acknowledge that. I must admit that I avoid the 30 day mod forum, because I don't want to delude myself into thinking I can do that some day. I've tried countless times to mod for years & years. My drinking still escalated.
I just wanted to get that out in the open. Whatever your goal, it's legitimate. What makes MWO unique is the degree of acceptance to whatever people are going through. If you are reading this during a hiatus from MWO, please feel free to come back into the community. It doesn't matter what kind of slip you've had...we've all been there.
tk: Hope you are doing well. I know the weekends can be difficult. Just remember how awful you felt the last time you drank. That helps me stay away from it.
Cindi: I know you have to travel tomorrow. Stay strong.
Kathy: Thanks for being here so faithfully. I look forward to your posts.

PS: Remember that if I don't start this thread it's because I'm embroiled in kids & g-kids. I'll be here at some point.
