    Christmas presents,paper and mess,

    Merry christmas Mick and everyone. My 2nd Christmas sober and this year will be filled with contentment and happiness as i am forever thankful for MWO for being sober and my cyber friends.

    I suck at poetry but here you go :congratulatory:

    Santa is flying to Aus land tonight
    to give his gifts and spread delight
    the tables are spread and presents are wrapped
    and damn at the moment i am totally sapped!

      Merry Christmas to the Aussies, even though I'm not one, I have to get in on the poetry fun!

      Christmas presents, paper and mess,
      how will I ever cope with the stress,
      I've got an idea that'll work I think
      A sneaky bottle stashed for a drink.

      so begins the day full of fun ,
      that first morning drink...the party's begun

      Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
      Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
      Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

        Of course just one bottle's not much of a stash
        better run out for more with my last fist of cash.
        Can I drive? Should I walk? Is my judgement okay?

            You can do it Byrdy! Everyone get on board, add a verse and when it's done, I'll copy it to the Limerick, Poems thread, with Mick's permission of course!

              I said with a shout...
              Got on my computer,
              and found My Way Out.
              I flew in the nest
              To learn what I could..
              Maybe these people here,
              Could do me some good?
              I tried and I tried
              And I fell off the wagon.
              My head was hurting
              And my heart was a-draggin.

                The bottle t'is empty - what will I do?
                Need to get to the store or mayhem will ensue :yikes:
                But hark sure it's Christmas -no need to get panicky

                    Merry Christmas our Mick
                    Your're a man of true talent
                    Heart big as a house and a Soul strong and valiant.

                    You've saved countless lives as mentor and muse
                    Guiding Newbies and knuckleheads (like me ) from an ocean of booze.
                    So many words to say, so many thanks to make
                    But it's Christmas Morning and the kids are awake!!

                    Love you Mick, :heartbeat:
                    MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS
                    On My Own Way Out Since May 20, 2012

                      The presents are opened, the food is all eaten.
                      For one more blessed day, Alcohol's been beaten.
