Roll Call time!!

Sorry Giz,beating you to the punch again with it but I'm so proud of what I've been reading I wanted to hear all the success stories,even if it';s 3 days sober!!!It's day 185 for me and I feel good.It can be done and we're all here to support each other.I notice a TON of questions about how long w/d will last--generally 3-5 days depending somtimes longer from what I heard.Another word of advice...HEalTH PAGES!!!! They contain tons of useful things.So sorry guys....rambling..let's hear about clean time and how you're doing!!!~Anne

I 'm not sure what the deal is but I always seem to show up right on time for the Roll Call
....Last night at a speaker meeting I listened to a woman share who's recovery date was 1974... Wow, Her message was simple and easily understood.
Thats kinda how I roll. I've been around long enough that if it was my passion I could recite the Basic Text of NA.....It's not. Yet I love NA~~
Life on life's terms---- The world didn't stop, for me to get clean. People kept living their lives while I was begining to map out what mine was going to look like.......
....Needless to say, left to my imagination of a good life??? I sold myself short. The life that I claim today is  FAR from the shortcommings of my earlier days of dreaming.
My recovery is more like dis-covery of ones self, full of twist and turns hardships and glory from the mountaintops. I try to keep my recovery fresh~  Thats how I roll.
Congrats to all you guys living clean today~~ Keep it simple!!!!  Keep it real!!!!   Keep it fresh!!!~~~  My clean date is January 21 1985~~ I have a sponsor, I have a home group, I have a support system, and I have you guys~~~Debra W. I am a addict

60 days!
never understood what there was to Celebrate about. my experience with clean time was white knuckles and cravings. Then I turned a corner by staying with it. (thanks to the peeps here) Now I am starting to feel like there is something to celebrate. I am starting to see the light. thanks for asking and keep being awesome everyone, every day.
