Well - guys I got a belly button birthday on Nov. 14th -I'm so excited - I still can't believe I am pushing 49 hard.  Who would have ever thought that I would get to write / and share my story - I should be dead! But my GOD had great plans for me.  I am so grateful.  I love my life today - Not only am I clean - but I have a life..full of joy, even with the struggles I have Joy today..I just wanted to share with you guys..Without NA, My HP, and my friends I would be nothing.

Happy Birthday Fiesty.... I totally relate to everything your saying I'm 46 in March and still it amazes me that I made it through 30yrs of active addiction. I hope you have a great day. Keep the faith xxxx

I know what you mean! I am alive more than twice as long as I "should" be and I am still astounded that I am still here! I feel younger each year---kinda like an extended "second chance".

Happy B-Day!

Happy birthday Terry.
Love your shares.
It's been a bunch of years since I saw 49. Hey if I knew I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself LOL.
Many more luv.

Well hey, now I have a better thing to remember 14 November than the one I have now. Thank you!

T'is only thru NA, the Steps, my sponsor, home group, and wonderful addicts like you that got me to 52 years of age. And to think I believed I would be lucky to live past 30, maybe 35. Not too sure if I find this aging thing exciting, but I just need to remember one thing...

Every year I stay alive includes another free trip around the sun.gif. I mean, like.... Woo-Hoo!!!

hey and Happy Birthday, Terry! Age is but a subjective thing! well, 'cept when the body starts to complain about simple things like getting outa bed, or climbin' a buncha stairs!  biggrin
