Hey guys
Happy Super Bowl Sunday! I hope everyone is enjoying there day. I have 86 days clean today. Im looking forward to 100. It feels like a lifetime ago, the pills, the nightmare.. its just proof to you all that this can be done. Its not fun, its very scary but it can be done if you want it bad enough Its a matter of life and death.
I am in the process of buying my own place .. more details to come.
I dont have any plans today, i wish i did. Have a good day everyone

That's so cool Justin.

Can't wait to hear more about the house.
Its the two family house i live in now with my parents. You all know my grandmother passed away back in Oct of Cancer. SO im buying 50% of the house. They intend to move down the shore soon. If they dont. I will rent out the upstairs apt and get my own apt. So the rent will pay the mortgage.
The downstairs will be rented out and that will pay my parents 50% of the house. So it works out.

Thanks Lily, it does feel like yesterday as well as a lifetime ago that i was on day 1. That was all the way back to Nov 10 2006. I will never forget that night. Had fun with friends, went home at 12 took 2 or 3 norcos. Woke up, went to Mass, then got a hotel for 3 long days nights and was miserable
Never again will I do that no way in heck

I am turning 30 in two weeks. Do you guys think its too old to meet the right woman. Im getting so nervous about this issue. Its on my mind a lot as of late. I know the whole be clean for a year thing but once you have a few months clean and can truly think, well you cant help it.
I just hope 30 is still young. I feel like im starting to live life for real for once

30 is not to old! No way. You'll just be harder to train, that's all.....kidding, Justin.
She's out there. One of these days, when you least expect it is when it'll happen. Be patient. You are so funny and cute....you're getting your life back and you're buying a house..what's not to love?

Thanks cowgirl I mean it., I am soo worried about it as of late. Its the whole leaving your 20's thing in my head. I hope and pray I find her, I pray every night and hard.
You guys are cool

Reddog,
Nawwwww you haven't even hit your prime yet dude...Hey your twenties were your first step out of childlike teens...you are just hitting 30 so you are only one step away from those teen years :) You still have many many years to find that special someone...Good things come to those who wait...

Why do you feel like a loser DOG? You prefer to be surrounded by people drinking and whatever else?
Your first year in recovery if you want to stay sober you make sacrifices. People places things.
If you belonged to a home group they all have Superbowl parties. Its just whatever you feel comfortable with.
So your home. I am home all alone--the game is there in my backyard. I could have went to the game if i wanted to. Free--sheety seats.
I went yesterday and bought an awesome SPREAD AND ATE MYSELF INTO OBLIVION.
SAW A GOOD MOVIE--THE DEPARTED--ENJOY YOUR NIGHT BACK TO THE GAME.
I have to go to work tomm--bet the over -47.5 due to the kicker missing 4 points already will probably lose as I can see the second half only scoring 17 points and i would lose by a 1/2 LOL f-in kickers
Its a decent game,
Dog had did you do in A.C You said you were going to play in a poker tournament.
You follow Poker? Mike Matoso is a decent player he won 500,000 on NBC today.
I watch and play.I am pretty good but not enough time or $$ to give it a shot.
But i can hold my own. We used to play a 5-10 game but I stopped playing as it want to 10-20 and that's just way to much of a possible loss for me right now.
You know Justin the only good gambler is a gambler who can afford to lose.
Live by that and you will never get into trouble.

Congrats on your cleantime--

Thanks for all the kind words once again guys. Hey Jeff thats cool that the big game is soo close to you. I am going down to AC in two weeks. I am playing in a tournament then. I tell you, being 3 months clean, i have lost a lot of friends, It is a kind of lonely stage but its cool. Im in recovery and would never want to give that up
Thanks for the pat on the back Jeff about the clean time, I remember how you felt i was not going to make it. It really is a tough battle, its a cancer but its treatable

Just remember Red, you don't want those kind of friends right now. Doesn't mean they're bad people, just means that you might have to wait until you're a little stronger before you can hang with them again. I gave up friends in early recovery too, they used or had drugs available...couldn't be around that and I knew it. Some are back in my life and now I can tell them to put away whatever they've got if I'm coming over. It's about being honest.
Yea, and who wants to be around a bunch of drunks anyway? How boring.
Is AC alot like Vegas?

These are all little rewards i had for myself. I knew i would never bve able to make trips on pills etc, no way!
