Dropping in to say Hello!!

[Olly]

Hey Everyone,
I haven't been posting here in ages, but I do check in occassionally for the always appreciated support and help to stay focused. Let's see... since early November 06 I've had three occassions to drink alcohol and all but New Years Eve were limited to two glasses! That is huge for me!!! I've actually quit counting the days.. but my last sip of wine (and cigarette) was Feb 3rd. Anyway, I thank you all every day!! For it was here, during those early awful days that I found the support to "come out of hiding" about my "secret" struggle with alcohol and for the first time to be honest about it all. That was what helped me make the "click". As Capto and Victoria alluded to in their posts and MikeUpNorth and others have too, the big change for me was made when I made the DECISION to stop drinking. I am in such a better place in life, in my head and in my body. I'm happy. Thanks to all of you wonderful souls... it's great to be traveling this path with you.
with love!!
Olly

Well, at least during the same period of time of alcoholic delusion, let it put it that way, grin ...

Hi Olly,
it is so good to hear from you and to hear that you are doing so well. I have been thinking about you and was hoping you didn't fall down into one of these deep crevices in the mountains. All the best.

Ah, Gee Guys... thanks for the kinds words and making me feel so welcome here. Ya'all are very special to me. I think of you as "my buds", "my group of friends" that I just really enjoy kicking back with and hanging out... when I can find the time. We are now only two weeks away from making the official move into our new house after living in this aparment for the last nine years... my life is endless boxes and still more packing to do!
When we're moved, unpacked and back into a somewhat normal routine I"ll be back to hang out.... relax!.... and spend some time with you. Til then, it's nice to know I can come here and see you all for a quick hello and rememeber that I do have such good buddies who take me "as I am". (that's for you, Young at Heart!)
take care, Olly
PS... Is Lisa 3102 around?? Amelia??
