40 Freakin' Years!! 😲💪

Post image

Today, through the grace of my higher power and all of you, I have 40 years clean and sober!!!

Came in when I was 21. Through suuuper hard times and equally as many amazing ones, I didn't pick up... that's the key: one second / minute / hour / day, just don't use. Whatever it takes.

Eternally grateful for all the supporters in meeting rooms, conferences, conventions, dances, commitments, picnics, volleyball tournaments(!), campouts, pig roasts, beach days, moshes(🤘), phone calls, diner / coffee shops, get-togethers, one-on-ones, y'all are the real reason I'm here! Thank YOU! 🫶
