The naysayers are sayin.......150 DAYS.......NO WAY, JOSE??!!!!

Course I KNEW you'd be proving them wrong....
and back doing your Chi-Gong.

You have one of those "names" that stirs up many memories for me.... Lil Orphan Annie, Annie Oakley, the musical hit "Annie Get Your Gun" ....Annie Bananny....
and that precious song that Annie (in the movie) sings that seems SO apropos for you my sweet friend:

"The sun'll come out tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar that tomorrow there'll be sun!
Just thinkin' about tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs and the sorrow till there's none!

When I'm stuck with a day that's gray and lonely
I just stick out my chin and grin and say

The sun'll come out tomorrow
So you got to hang on til tomorrow, come what may!
Tomorrow! Tomorrow!  I love you, tomorrow!
You're always a day away!

I just stick out my chin and grin and say.....Oh

The sun'll come out tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on till tomorrow, come what may!
Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you, tomorrowYou're always a day away

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you tomorrow
You're always a day away

Happy 5 MONTH Birthday to my Boston Buddie (((HUGS)))))

Way to go Annie!  I concur with the posts above.. let those descriptions soak-in, because they're all true: inspiration, remarkable, wisdom, grace, humility.  Thanks for taking me, and so many others, under your wing.  You are a blessing to us all.  The tough-love you adminster is sobering, but always helpful, cerebral, and true.  I thank God to have you as my coach, and I'll be sending you e-hugs once I quit forever - pursuant to our plan - on June 14th.  Cheers!

You jumped on this forum with both feet and all your heart. Thank you so much. I'm sure you wish you where coming off H. I remember telling my wife that at about 60 days. I would never suggest anyone do it the way we did, our detox and sub taper was similar. I wouldn't take a bit of it back either. Thanks for being here with us, you are such a great inspiration.

Thanks...Once again for the surprise post, R. Just a heads up though, I'm coming off of 20 yrs. of Methadone. (If it were H. I'd be sleeping by now, HA!)
Thanks again, you really didn't have to do this!

I could NOT agree MORE with everything - great post Robert!  And CONGRATULATIONS to you Annie on 5 months clean - you are a huge asset to this forum; giving constant support and sharing so much with others, even at times when you are not feeling so great yourself.  Thank you, thank you, thank you - for being such an inspiration, for caring and just for being YOU!  Amazing and incredible accomplishment - I am so proud of you!
Love you my friend :)
