About Me

Sobriety B'day 12-28-75 "Each Day is a New Beginning" is how I try to work my life to the fullest. I have made some colossal mistakes in my life but being a part of AA has not been one of them. I went to AA when I was 25 and I didn't go because I thought I was an alcoholic, I went because I wanted to be dead. Leaving the alcohol and drugs behind made my life easier but what made my life good was the nature of the 12 Steps and 12 Traditions in Alcoholic Anonymous and working the steps. My husband died in 1994 and while I stayed physically sober, I was spiritually and emotionally on a 'dry-drunk ' for a long, long time. We had 2 kids together (they were 4 years old and 8 years old, at the time); I could not raise them because of my depression and I asked for help from my family. My sister helped but she lived in Georgia while I lived in Ohio. A lot of very difficult events and times have passed. Now the youngest boy is 19 and I live with him, in the house that he bought... and we are 'roomies', a very tough spot to be in - it is hard to see him drinking and using. But I have never given up hope. I hope to meet some new friends and help other recovering people. Peace and Love
