…Your new car is creating an addiction … I think we should talk about it…

I have felt like I’m missing out on part of the community here since I haven’t contributed to this thread. But, as an SA, I feel weird posting a picture of myself. Problem solved! Enjoy my first selfie here…

And bonus points for no Snapchat Filters!

The app keeps saying “New Users cannot post pictures”… how long does it take for me to be an “old user”? I would like to snap and track my recovery - see if I look different over time, participate in the community.

Anyone else have this issue?

Dude - I honestly thought I was the only one coming up with that same trick with the water bottle.

Times are a changing for the better! Those days are done.

I’m on day 3 today… how are you doing? Does it get better?

We do lot’s of incomprehensible things in the name of drinking. It really is insanity. Life is untold amounts of better without my “work water”.

Here’s to a better today, a better tomorrow. You are what you drink, to my kids I’m a rockstar and that’s all the buzz I need

It’s not how long you’ve been a member. It’s how active a member you’ve been. comment on a bunch of threads and give a bunch of likes, and you will be “promoted”, getting more privileges… At least that’s my understanding

That’s awesome man! We will all be better because of this - great job !

So I am going on my first business trip sober in like… probably … 7 years. Airports, airport bars, hotel bars… having a per diem that I can spend on booze… This is going to be hard, I know it. I also know that I am not alone. I remember when I tried open water swimming competitively. I hated having my head submerged not knowing where I was going. What got me through that was knowing that air is always an inch away.

You all have been my air. I do thank you. I will definitely need you on this trip as I make this trip a win.

Thanks again everyone. Next stop, Sobertown!!

That’s brilliant
I have one which looks like me

Tothedrew 2018-04-16 17:52:48 UTC #3816

It’s okay @Raylove3. I have reset so many times - my app keeps telling me that I need professional help.

If you are in a trip and you miss your exit - do you start the trip over? No, turn the car around and go back and get off at the right exit.

So look at this as a stumble. Learn from it and move on. You got this!!

I LOVE that analogy!

Modestakieran 2018-04-16 19:43:54 UTC #3818

Meet my new baby. IT FINALLY CAME! I’m gonna have to start posting computer selfies 'cause I know I’m going to be on this thing a lot, at least for the next week or so.

Yesss! That’s always exciting, have fun! What games do you play?
