Oh yeah - CONGRATS ON DAY 9!!!! And in a few hours, it will be 10!! (wow!) :)
Well, you're about to give your daughter the BEST birthday present ever - her REAL mommy (even if she doesn't know that, YOU will). How great is that??? Thanks again for the smile - and yes it feels GREAT to smile without drugs. Laughing, smiling, even crying with a clear head beats that awful fog I was in any day! :) p.s. it's easy to compliment your work :)
It feels good to smile, doesn't it?! Especially a smile not induced by drugs. :). Thanks so much about my painting. It makes me feel good when others like my work. :). This Saturday my daughter will be 7 and I will be sober for it :)). It's a wonderful feeling! Day 9!!
It is SO great to hear you talking like this kelseago - it does feel really good when family starts to notice a change. Definitely a great motivator to keep going. I saw the new painting too - once again, love the colors you choose! Your work is so beautiful and I think without drugs, there will be no stopping your obvious talent.
Keep going kels - it will continue to get better (with maybe some off days but nothing you can't handle with a clear head) and the time under your belt will also be a great motivator. You made me smile so thank you!! :)
Happy you had a good day.You can do it everyday will get better and better. Keep busyand keep posting Congrats on day 8 great job Good luck James
Thanks you guys! I'm feeling even better today!! I'm loving my life :). And my family is starting to see a little me coming out :))
I am so proud of you woman! You're doing all the right things. We have a saying in my CA group: "Fake it til you make it"...lol. Even if you're not feeling it, push yourself and just do it. Be it meetings, or any activities to get you out of your head. And as you found out for yourself, you feel better in no time!
Rock on girl! Glad you are here and walking the walk with us!
I'm sending you a message too...
Congrats Kels! It'll get better every morning. I hated mornings for the first 2 weeks, now I'm pretty much back to normal, don't think about those devils anymore :)
Hi Kelseago- Congrats! I'm very happy for you and glad I stopped in. You made my smile even bigger. Thanks for that. Keep up the good work. Each day is a blessing now.
