Hi and a big welcome to you.

Wow nearly 4 months sober FanBloomingTastic :}

I had a friend once in Fairfield CA..Its a long,long story lol :}

I live on a very small Island in the Med and we have three meetings a week. I understand today that I need to keep coming back,because if not I will stop hearing the sharing, the message. and the experience strength and hope.

I depend on the wisdom of the old timers and the need within me to help any newcomers. They said this would happen :}

Well done you the early days can be tough going but keep in contact,keep doing what you need to do. and all comes together. We live sober lives. How great is that :}

A day at a time.

Hi all. I don't own a regular Pc so I did not see your replies until now. Thank you so much for the support and the welcomes. Hope to hear more about and from all of you. Polly, I'm intrigued about the island and the fairfield friend. We will have to chat.

biggrin  Hi Folks!  On the twelfth, I celebrated nine months sober and I'm still going. I truly thank God for the program as outlined in the Big Book as well as the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous.  Life, on it's own terms, is a truly amazing entity.
