September 23th 2020 is the day I decided to kick alcohol to the curb, decided nows the time to quit making excuses for why I need alcohol and to start making excuses as to why I dont need alcohol. Alcohol for many years has been my happy place but I know I can do this with the help of my family, friends and others who struggle with my same evil addiction I do. 💪👊

Welcome here Tara 🙋
Stick around, it helps to be here much.
Read, write and learn…that was the key for my recovery.
Hope to see you around often 😉
