Well....if I make it past Valentine's Day, I will have stayed sober through Memorial Day, 4th of July, Labor Day, my Mom's anniversary, Halloween, Thanksgiving, my Mom's Birthday, Christmas Eve, Christmas, my birthday, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day for the first time in over 6 years. I was so greatful this New Years, so be sober, with my best friend at an Alano Club Dance, remembering the whole night....ah....so, one more "holiday" and I will have experienced them all. I lead my first big meeting today at my homegroup, totally spontaneously, not expecting to do it, it was great! And I'm getting ready to start sponsering, as soon as a newcomer finds me. Thank you all so much for being a part of my first year! Just remember, no matter how much time each of us has, for every one of us this was our first day sober in 2006. It's time for new beginnings for all of us! Congratulations to everyone for staying sober through the new year, and to the "normies" who read this thread, I hope you had a most excellent new year's as well, and thank you for sharing this with us!!! I love you all!
