Prayers for you Mellisa. You must be willing to accept God’s Will for you. Do you go to AA meetings?

Congrats!
Today is day 1968 for me.
It's a start.

There's a great meeting a couple of towns over that I kind of slipped away from after I got married, speaking of losing track of time... I think I'll check it out this evening.
I must now let self will run riot on the tree next to the garage before all the shingles end up in the yard.
Congratulations dude, and many happy returns.
To: Graybeard58
Congratulations. So far so good eh?

I’m good with the progress. The day, last year, when I lost my job, or should I say it just disappeared, was a toughie. And it got a little stressful in the 6 months of unemployment that followed. But the week before that ran out, a job sorta kinda landed on me. Wouldn’t have happened if I’d been passed out on the couch and not out there making myself a target.

You done good. My brother never mastered the quit drinking game and died at age 45 four years ago with cirrhosis of the liver, hep B & C, along with gastritious.
There are consequences to not following through.

Drinking never improves things when they are going bad, it can only make them worse.

Congratulations FRiend!
What we really have is a daily reprieve contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition.

By the grace of God, I'm free! A.A. played its part too.
My sentiments as well!

Excellent! Congrats! My brother just celebrated 7 years.
To: Graybeard58
Happy birthday,
I’ll celebrate my 36th on the 17th, God willing.
To: Graybeard58
Great. It works when you work it. You know what comes after 30 years? 30 years plus one day. One day at a time. Thats how it works.

Congrats on your thirty, I hear it’s the hardest year to get through. I’ll have 21 years if I make it to the 8th of next month.

Great to hear Graybeard,
Remember, there is no situation so bad that a drink cannot make it worse..
To: Graybeard58
P.S. I didnt mean to imply Im cured. Ill be cured, when I take my dirt nap but I am still free.Incorrect.
If you die, and there is a nuclear war in which the radiation reanimates your corpse, and you become a zombie, you BETTER be a zombie that gets to a meeting.....
.....or you will be a zombie that drinks.

My brother is an alcoholic. He has been a faithful member of AA for 20 (?) years or more. We love him so much and we are so grateful that he is still with us. If he had continued on the path he was going he would have surely died.
I bet your family feels the same about you.
May God bless you.
