Greetings, sportsfans -
I've had the pleasure of posting my sobriety anniversary here on the Cathe forums for 8 years now, and I always look forward to it. Year 22 has passed fairly quietly, no major developments pro or con, just putting one foot in front of the other (preferably in athletic shoes to the beat of The Cathe). It never ceases to amaze me how good life can be when on a daily I don't do that one simple little thing that could, I truly believe, kill me.
July 20, 1987 I lay in bed gasping, a bloated, sweaty mess knowing I was late for work at a shit job that I was lucky to have. On July 19, 2009 I lay on the floor gasping, a lean sweaty mess having gotten through Shaun T's Max Interval Circuit knowing that a killer ab routine and upper body weights were ahead of me. From inebriety to Insanity. Now that's progress.
I know there are those here on these forums who are fellow travelers along Sobriety Road; I know too there are those here on these forums whose lives have been damaged by the alcoholism of a loved one and are prevailing despite those ravages. To those Cathe-ites especially, I offer my A-Jock Salute.
Now, if I could only get my driver's license . . .
THANKS FOR READING THIS!!! HAVE A GREAT WORKOUT DAY!!!
Love,
A-Jock
