I am honored to be here with all of you.

Welcome Lesley! I am new to this site as well.

Hi Lesley and Dave,

It is so great to have you both join us.

Lesley, I live about 12 minutes east of Raleigh.

I hope you both will continue to come and share with us here. Have a great day!

Hello all,

My name is Ron, aka Rondo. I have been sober since 10/8/14 and am enjoying my new life as a result of AA.

Thanks.

Hi everyone I'm Greg and I'm an alcoholic. Happy to be here, grateful to be part of such a positive and constructive group and wish everyone a super 24. Thanks, Greg

Welcome Greg, thank you for stopping and saying hello. Hope you will continue to come and share your journey with us.

I like this little guy, he reminds me to take the journey inward.

Good morning!

Just popping in to say hey. Been visiting the page for a while now . This place is a miracle, Correction - it is many miracles in one place. It continues to save my life and propel my recovery. Many months ago I prayed for a single source for my prayer and meditation. I was looking for substance and something that would stretch my soul. The God of my understanding is never cheap. He gifts me beyond measure every single time. The cup really does run over!

Briefly, I've been an alcoholic for many years and went cold turkey after being pulled over one night on a dirt road in the middle of the night. A very sobering experience to say the least, I'm presently in another addiction program and enjoy sponsoring and helping people make strides in recovery.

I am feeling especially isolated right now. I have many health issues, and I'm also a caregiver for my partner and mom. Down time is rare at times, and i get stretched thin. Self-care, self-care!

Would you do me a favor? If there's something I can do to make your journey easier, would you touch base with me? It would mean a lot to me. Feels good to feel useful, you know?

Y'all have a wonder-filled day

Peace!

ljportelli,

So glad to have you join us. I do hope you will continue to come and share with us here. Have a great weekend!

MajestyJo · 06-14-2015, 06:06 PM

Welcome ljportelli, sorry I haven't been here to greet you. I have been isolated as a result of my own health issues, and it has been difficult not being able to be on the boards to share. Even my meditation cards told me to connect and share with others. I am fortunate that I have had a couple of friends to share with while I haven't been able to be here as well as my sponsor.

The material on the site has been here for me, new and old. I just have to reach out and look for it. It is surprising how I can go to a section, click on a post and what I need to hear and see is there waiting to speak to me.

Hope you will be able to continue to come and share your journey with us.

Hey everyone! My name is Suzanne and I am an alcoholic. In July I will celebrate my second first year of sobriety. I had one year and then left and was out for another 8. I guess I had to be sure. There is no doubt about it.. Glad to be here and be sober!!

bluidkiti · 06-28-2015, 06:33 AM

Hi Suzanne,

I am so glad that you decided to join us here. Congratulations on your upcoming 2 years!

I hope you will continue to come and share with us here. Have a great Sunday!

Liddie · 06-29-2015, 03:18 PM

Welcome back!
I had 31 years as of 3.19.15
The only thing that means is that I know. .. you never have to go back out. You can recover from the hopeless state of mind...
This promise is the result of working the steps.
If you want what we have and are willing to go to any lengths. .. hey a sponsor... who has working knowledge of the big book. ..
Have her take you thru the steps and be as open and honest... thorough as you can be.
Instead of "keep coming back"...
Just "stay".
