Default About Time Too is 1000 DAYS

One of original forum members, "About Time Too", or Brigid is
now 1000 days without a single drop of alcohol.

I am inspired, and awed, and very much proud of her accomplishment.

Brigid

Congratulations!! This really is a inspiration to those of us who have just started our journey. Some days we read posts and see people slipping and wonder can this really be done. Then we read a post like this and see that this program does work and it can be done. Thank you for being here and leading the way into sobreity.

I am so truly happy for you.

Good on you, brigid!!!!! From our chats, I know you`ve worked so damned hard, surpassing "merely" becoming sober, just as neil has done. You have both drawn on steely determination to stay the course.......I have enormous respect and admiration for you both.

I`m almost a year sober now, and realise that very little of my life has changed in this first year of sobriety. I`ve recently taken to bypassing the romantic fiction section in the local library (LMAO).......it`s the life-coaching books I head for these days. I want more out of sobriety than "just" sobriety.......I want to keep following your shining example. I now believe that "anything is possible" if sober and committed to becoming all we can be.

My hat is off to both yourself and neil.

Darling (Star) xx
