Good evening, ladies and gents of the Noticeboard.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and is having a good Day-After-Thanksgiving!! And congrats on five years of sobriety, DF (although it's a tad bit late, I believe). |

Just got home from band practice and I am a wreck. Hurt from head to toe, throat is sore and my legs are like rubber. I tell you, I don't know HOW Rob does it!! |

Thank you, JD! I appreciate your kind words. Today is my FIFTH anniversary of sobriety, indeed. Five straight years without a single drop of alcohol. I suppose I could go on about how difficult it has been but it really has not been all that hard. I mean, I realize that it is very hard and all but I am lucky in that I have an extremely strong will power and I can shut things on and off with relative ease. That is not to say that I did not suffer, because I did. I was terribly sick when I quit but I stayed with it.
I will say this; if you truly want something, you can have it. Even the things that seem so far out of reach. I was where some of you may be today. My life revolved around drinking. I worked. I paid my bills. I drank...and drank, and drank. When I finally gave it up, much of my life changed. Cannot say with certainty that it was due to sobriety but I can say that it happened.
To those of you that are drinkers I say, enjoy. Nothing wrong with the occasional drink. To those of you that may be suffering as I once suffered I say, there is hope. You can beat it if you really want to. Feel free to PM me. I am always up for a chat about this subject. Your personal confidence is always safe with me. |

Ahhh stuffing, turkey... making me so excited for Christmas now. Cannot believe the year has gone this fast. The university is suddenly full of lost students and families going to interviews and departmental tours for next year and it doesn't seem that long since I was in the same position.. but enough of that!
I have officially decided that it is (nearly) christmas in my world and I am off to the Metal God's page to finally listen to his winter songs- exciting times!
Have fun with your thanksgiving leftovers!
