6 months!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Permalink  
 

I'm celebrating my 6 month sobriety anniversary today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Wow, 6 whole months and it's really wild, because yesterday and the day before were the first days that I actually felt like my life was really shaping up.  The eating disorder has a lot to do with why it took so long, I think, but I have this desire now to do so much more of my old activities and live a normal life.


I had surgery last Monday to remove some abnormal cells and should be finding out if it's cancer soon.  If it is, of course, that will be a bit of a shock, but I thought I'd let you all know.


Thanks for your time!  HUGS!  Hang in there!

Hi SheIs,

A very big congratulations on 6 months of sobriety!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is terrific. Well done. Life really will keep on getting better for you. It is for me.

I hope, with all of my heart, that your medical news will be good when your results come back. I'm keeping you in my prayers. Please let us know how it is going for you, won't you?

Take care,

Carol

Do you find your general sense of well being growing? Even when things suck?

I think 'ol Waylon said it best.

Sometimes it's heaven,
Sometimes it's hell
Sometimes I don't even know.
Sometimes I take it
As far as I can.
Sometimes I dont even go.

Thanks, everyone!  My priest came over yesterday to bring me a gift for my 6 months sobriety.  It was so out of the blue...just called up and said she was on her way.  It's a journal of a daily reflection sort of book.  Very nice of her and she wanted me to know how proud she is of me.


And, definitely a very great source of growing going on here.  Before, it's just seemed like I was walking through the world of people who were all normal besides me, but I'm starting to enjoy the stuff they enjoy...finally!  LOL!


Take gentle care!
