Thanks Shelley!! Yup Hubby is proud....and I of him.....September he will be celebrating 8 years as well! We met in a 12 step meeting!! I always rub it in that "I" have more sobriety than him by 1 1/2 months...and I will NOT drink again or else he would be ahead of me!!! We both have good solid sobriety and love life this way!!

Congratulations Dorrie!! I know your journey was not easy, but you deserve to be so PROUD of yourself.Sending best wishes to you and your husband. My Mom had an alcohol problem, and I watched as she stuggled,failed,struggled to stay dry. She finally made it and lived to be 96 yrs old (just passed away last year).It was the 12 step program that finally helped her. You have my heartfelt admiration!! Treat yourself to something really special on your anniversary!!:D

Dorrie,

I share your gratitude. I got the gift July 4, 1985; and I continue to keep this gift a day at a time.

Blessings to you and your hubby, too.

Super Dorrie!! :hug: How wonderful !! :D:D:D
I haven't had a cigarette for 2 1/2 years .... I understand that grand feeling of accomplishment. Prayer is what helped me quit.
