Not only is today Gina's (soccermom's) birthday, but she also has TWO YEARS of sobriety today!! That's so amazing, Gina. I am honored that you've allowed me to be a part of your journey. My addiction paved the way for a wonderful friendship with you and for that, I'll always be grateful. There are so many wonderful things about you that I could list, but I'm pretty sure you already know them.
I hope you have a wonderful day. Maybe go to the day spa for an all day pampering. You surely deserve it!
Love,
Dentate (lol)

Your love is better than ice cream
Better than anything else that Ive tried
Your love is better than ice cream
Everyone here knows how to cry
And its a long way down
Its a long way down
Its a long way down to the place
Where we started from
Your love is better than chocolate
Better than anything else that Ive tried
Oh love is better than chocolate
Everyone here knows how to fight
Its a long way down
Its a long way down
Its a long way down to the place
Where we started from...
Okay, in the tradition of Sarah McL and Lilith Fair, its your turn. Im bad about dates and there are a lot of people here I dont know well, so if you wouldnt mind posting your birth date, clean date, or both, I will enter them into my yahoo calendar and set it to remind me when these important events roll round.
Thank you, everyone, for helping me get here. I would never have known what recovery is but for you lovely people.
If anyone out there is on the fence, trust me, its better on this side.
All my love,
Gina

DeNae, You know youre my sister under the skin. Thanks for teaching me about found family.
Rachel, You were there for me right from the start and I don't forget that.
Jewels, Stephanie, Shantel, It's been so much fun sharing sober laughter with you girls.
Tim, I'm here. Kiss away!
This will be an everlasting love
This will be the one I've waited for
This will be the first time anyone has loved me
I'm so glad you found in time
And I'm so glad that
You rectified my mind
This will be
An everlasting love for me
Loving you is some kind of wonderful
Because you've shown me
Just how much you care
You've given me the thrill of a lifetime
And made me believe you've got more thrills to spare, oh
This will be
And everlasting love, oh, yes, it will now
You've brought a lot of sunshine into my life
You've filled me with happiness I never knew
You gave me more joy than I ever dreamed of
And no one, no one can take the place of you
This will be, eternally
Huggin' and squeezin' and kissin' and pleasin'
Together forever through rain or whatever
You and me
So long as I'm livin' true love I'll be givin', to you I'll be servin'
Cause you're so deservin'
Hey, you're so deservin'
You're so deservin', yeah, yeah, yeah
The love, the love, the love, the love, the love, love, love, love,
From now on, from now on, from now on, from now on...

Thank you for the elegant e-cake! My parents never saw any reason to celebrate the birth of yet another daughter. Now I have my own good reasons to celebrate this day, with my new family on this board.
Love you muchly,

Thank you, Ladies of the Board! If you haven't, please remember to post your dates on the other thread so that I can remember you in time.
Lisa, Hasn't it been a trip, how much we've both grown?
Michelle, Yeah, we found each other cause we're addicts, but we're so much more now that the drugs aren't getting in our way. I can't tell you what your friendship has meant to me. I am reduced to song lyrics, LOL.
It's crazy I'm thinking
Just knowing that the world is round
Here I'm dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down,
Is it real or am I dreaming?
Lovely lady, I will treat you sweetly, adore you
I mean you crush me
It's times like these when my faith I feel
And I know how I love you
Come on, lady
It's crazy I'm thinking
Just as long as you're around
And here I'll be dancing on the ground
Am I right side up or upside down
To each other we'll be facing
By love we'll beat back the pain we've found
You know I mean to tell you all the things I've been thinking deep inside
My friend, with each moment the more I love you
Crush me
Come on
So much you have given, love
That I would give you back again and again
Meaning I'll hold you
And please let me always
OMG, I'm shaking. An OP just called. I was in the MIDDLE of posting this. I had the perverse pleasure of telling the caller that Gina had died of an overdose and did he know that he had killed someone? LMAO, With trembling voice he said he'd take Gina off their call list.
I'm off to do murder in the kitchen. Three lobsters to assassinate before the thunderstorms hit and we lose power. I may have a candlelight dinner tonight after all.
DeNae, Have you heard from your father? Is he out of the danger zone?
Have a lovely evening, my darlings.
All my love,
Gina

Funny how long it took me to think of what I wanted to say to you on this thread, Gina. What could I possibly say that you don't just instictively feel?
So in the end, I just want to celebrate you.
I am so grateful that the skies opened and you fell through with your warmth, compassion, humor and the bright light that shines wherever you are.
Thank you for allowing me to tag along beside you on your journey in this life and all those before it and all those yet to come. I wouldn't want it any other way.
Born on the same day as my Mother and Sister, that just has to mean something.
You're so easy to love.
Congradulations on your birthdays and know how special you are always.
Kat
xxxxxxxxoooo
