I made it three years today and I just now realized it was just a few moments ago.
Its a good thing to be late to your own funeral!

Thank you all ...
I wanted to share that when I read Pauls response not that others have not touched me as well I had tears streaming which usually is easy for me to do okay fine, but man You all will never know how hard it was for paul to get through to me online and others Robin and Carol and Sam and Nikki Trixie Deb Tink and another person who helped too but no longer with us... you just dont know what a time he had how many hours we spent books and tapes and gratitude I feel in my heart because I was ready to give it all up the little amount of time built back up I was ready to throw out the widow and me screaming though online screaming how about how f'd up life was and how I doubted there could be a God to allow this all and the mfs and Fs and GD's and name calling My friend Paul a wonderful man endured that to get me to at least hear the message that I had a choice today The day I forget what he endured and Tom endured some too and all ya all have heard my complaints so I guess everyone here has endured me to some point Np Tommy Joanne The day I forget what all people did for me is the day I head closer back to what I wanted free from Some say I am not a nice person if I dont get my way while I am alot better now than I used to be even then oh lordy .... I am not near as good as Iam gonna be one day Love ya all This has been really a special time Love JD PS IT really is a good thing to be late to your own funeral I should have died out there and I dont want to forget saying my sponsor spiritual adisor and therapist and if I missed saying ones name I pray youll tell me after you forgive me.

Of course I am late as usual...
You have been one of the nicest men I have ever met in my life sober and out there. I am not only proud to have you here, be my friend, I am proud that you made it and are a part of the this wonderful program. You have not given up and you have been through hell and back. All I have to do is think of you when I am being a baby, or complaining, or thinking its all about me and I have to stop it as you show me that there is nothing we cannot do if we do not use. I hope that we are together here for many many years. I am willing and God willing it can happen. You go JD!!! All my love all my applause to you and your 3 years what a miracle you are!!

Ok Iam wrong a few want me to cry again LOL
When I first came to recovery inn I kept hoping I could fit in and wasnt sure I could but you all really showed me as the program shows there's a wrench for every nut here Tink and Karen thank you so much each of you sharing your ESH Karen the fact of being free from even nicotine wow what an accomplishment! Tink yours and Bobs ESH has brought me alot of hope as he shares his part through you here and your own ESH Iam only reminded our stories are not new we have all done the same similar things Been treated as outcasts even once we turned to do the next right thing and here it is 2007 and some of us have a few that trust us again and some that we finally trust again too! We maybe Nutzo but we are not alone!
Thank you RECOVERY INN!!!!!

This place is all of you, and seeing your names really makes me feel good each day don't know if others feel that way but I do.
I am a bit under the weather so I am not ignoring the group. Its the end of summer and we get slow. I was doing some search engine submissions the other day and ran across a group that had hundreds of members and 37 on line when I was there. It did not feel right to me, kinda generic or something. Almost like people chatting about anything but really talking to one another but to hear themselves talk or post that is. I like the small family groups, most do not make it as the owners I guess expected more. Paul kept me going the first year when we had just 2 or 3 members posting. And I am glad he did. Please feel free to start topics in the rooms and take charge It really helps me. Thanks and Love Tink |

Belated congratulations. Three Years is a milestone and a time of great change for me, and I hope for you too. I received new awareness, self-honesty, and
spiritual healing.
Love Always, Jo |
