Re: Newbies Nest
Hi Nesters!
Exciting things happening in the States at the moment. All the best to the new Administration and what it can achieve for the people.
Big congratulations to Byrdlady on 10 YEARS - a mammoth milestone!
All going steady in my world.
Lots of love to all in the Nest

Re: Newbies Nest
Hi All - popping back into the nest just to say Hello, as I just referred a good friend here and am hoping she will stop by the nest eventually. It has been a long time since I've visited and appreciate and am grateful to all of you who helped support me to get sober. I will have 7 years on March 23. Glad to see all of your names again, and that you are well and survived the past 4 years. Thank God that nightmare is over. During the oath of office I felt every muscle in my body involuntarily relax. Thank you for your commitment to this work of helping others - you are all angels!

Welcome Mitchelle! Pav (Pavati) summed things up pretty well. MWO has lots of threads but the Newbies Nest is primarily for newer folks looking for support to help them quit drinking. We've got lots of regular posters who've been in the nest for years, and we have new folks like yourself join in throughout the year. We're here for you. Can you tell us a bit about yourself? Totally ok if you'd like to hang back and get the lay of the land first too. How can we best help you?

Re: Newbies Nest
Sigh... that was a sigh of relief. Obviously those of us in the nest who live in the U.S. are truly relieved with our new administration taking the helm. I'm almost certain the entire world will be better off (and safer) without the orange menace in office here. And we WILL stop talking about it. Thank you all outside the U.S. for your patience as we process the 4-year trauma. As @Byrdlady said, it really was like being in an abusive relationship. I'm grateful to have gotten through it all with my quit intact and stronger than ever.
Lav - I wish your neighbors could somehow understand that they're being played by a con man who truly doesn't care about them beyond their votes/applause/support/donations.
NS - thank you for sharing Chrissy Teigen's post. I hadn't seen that, but I love what she wrote.
Peppersnow - great to see you! Congrats on your upcoming 7 years, and I hope the friend you suggested the nest to shows up here.
Hellos and waves to all. It's almost the freakin' weekend. Happy Fridays everyone!
