happy

Hello my SI Friends,
Today, I celebrate 16 years of sobriety. I quit cold turkey and have never looked back. The contentment and joy of life has helped me in countless ways. I am also blessed with a supportive husband and family.
I missed my February Caribbean getaway this year, so I wasn't able to post my number of sober days drawn in the sand...hopefully, next February with smy.



Together 57 years, Married 52 years. Sober since 2009. "You've always had the power, my dear, you just had to learn it for yourself." (The Wizard of Oz)

Congrats on your sobriety. I think that for those that need it, sobriety is the most important thing for a good life.

Congratulations. I'm very glad you've hit this milestone, and I'm very glad you post about each new one.

Sorry you missed the Caribbean this year.
