I guess the New Year’s resolutions are done. We’ve had a quiet board for a few days.

I agree….the rush has waned, but the doors are open all year if anybody wants to enter. If one stops by, it’s better than none.

Keep coming and keep trying and keep posting. We need dialogue on this site. We can’t deal with alcohol on our own

We need people for dialogue and not many new people stop by for very long to have a dialogue. When I first joined almost two years ago, there would be months between new posts . It’s gotten better since then.

There may not be a formal admin, but our reports go directly to HU and the person who is in charge of overseeing this community. Her name is Maddie. The woman in the picture under community guidelines.

Hello my friend, and my resolution is to take the wins and get through each day, it's tough, I've been knocked on my butt from Covid and all it's Long Covid side effects for a while now, and I can tell you...it's humbling how much I took my good health for granted. I don't anymore.

Life without alcohol makes us humble whether we want it or not. Learning how to “stand still and hurt” is a challenge. But you and I both know it’s better than having to live a drinking life. I’m so sorry for your plight and hope you get some better health.

We are the quintessential survivors my friend... and to hell with the golden years...nothing golden about um. But.... it is what it is... and yes.... sober living isn't always a cakewalk, but the alternative is not an option.
