Thanks Tahir!! I got home a few hours ago, but I took a nap as soon as I got home. How has everyone been? missed you all
I've been homesick, I didn't know they wouldn't let me use the phone at all...I haven't talked to my son since thursday, but he'll be home soon from school. I think going was the best thing I could have done, I am off of the fence now. Going to get to the meeting tonight an hour early and help set up, start participating more etc.
well, glad to be back, i have to straighten up the living room a bit (maybe, or maybe I'll rest a bit more)
me too! (glad to be here and clean) I can say that I truly desire to be clean now, I think I wanted to feel that way before, but now i can feel it, and I am just excited to learn how to live each day clean (and just to learn how to live, period!)
WELCOME BACK!!!! I must say congrats, and good luck. You have missed and eventful couple days, but all for the better. I been clean for 5 days nows, and let me tell you i feel like a new person. Started running and exercising even spending more time with the family, which sounds stupid but is rare for me.
As for my friend Stryker, well he just go out of rehab. I honestly thought he was dead. He was missing for about a week and a half and was arrested for public indecensy for knocking on peoples door naked and saying trick or treat. Its in the newspaper under the police beat, and at first i was embarrassed to be his friend, but i know i have to be there for him. So i guess things could be worse.
Anyways, I just wanted to say welcome back. CONGRATS!!! and GOOD LUCK. "May the force be with you."
Stay with the winners here and go to the meetings and you can do this thing, It's not for those who need it , but for those who want it bad enough and it sounds like you want it . Good luck on your journy, remember your worth it!
DRIZZT, CONGRATS ON THE BIG 5 CLEAN MIRACLES. WAY TO GO. KEEP THE MIRACLE ALIVE. STAY WITH US HERE. WE NEED YOU. HUGS AND LOVE.
TAHIR.

thanks everyone! well, today is day 6, and I do believe that is the longest so far. I'm not going to lie though, yesterday was a pretty sucky day at school.well, it was just pretty sucky, period. plus my phone was shut off (not a surprise really, can't remember when I paid the bill last)....but today is a new day, I can stay clean just for today

Thanks Tahir! I thought it was going to be a bad day....went out to find something, but decided to go to school early instead, and prayed on the way there. as soon as I got there, there was an email from one of the local NA members, I had just emailed earlier from home, didn't expect an answer so soon. then I got to class, and found out that the lady who's in my class 9and has been for 6 months or so) is the one some of the guys have been saying they'd like me to meet, that she'd be good to talk to (they said her first name and that she was taking the same thing as me, I just had a feeling it was her) we had a good talk and she said we could get together at breaks and talk every day. then at the meeting tonight one of my neighbors who just started going was asking me about detox, and I told her that it really helped alot, and I'd take her if she needed to go )don't know if I said, but a couple of NA members drove me there and another one picked me up...and a few visited while I was there.It is just such a good feeling to know that there are people that are there who care and know what you are going through....anyways after the meeting she came up and hugged me and said she'd think about going to detox and said she was proud of me and I was her inspiration. Now, it's only been 6(almost 7!) days, but it just felt so good to hear that, and it makes me want to keep working on the program and going to meetings. My area doesn't have many women in the meetings, in fact the girl i've been taking (the court appointed one, who has really started to turn around it seems...she's doing well!) and I are the only ones usually at the meetings. The guys say the women usually come in and leave after too long, maybe if there were more women there they would feel more comfortable and one day I can be of help.
anyways, I have had a good evening...these moods change in the blink of an eye, so i'm enjoying it while it lasts!! Hope everyone is doing well
So proud of you Adriana your doing great and getting some good stuff back in return, you can go along ways just keep clean.
You keep me sober when I can't do it myself, everyone here is important to each other and we draw strength when we couragessly get thru each day clean.
You have also been an inspiration for me, Adriana, in many other contexts... Also I identify strongly with one aspect with you ~ you never seem to give up, no matter what setbacks might occur... that is exactly how I was too while trying to stop and stay stopped... and even today, with whatever I try to persevere... Thanks for all the strength and hope you have been to me here at MIP...
