A friend indeed.

Glad to hear you are getting it together. Many go down the path you were on and never return. Keeping productively busy is the best thing you can do to keep yourself out of trouble.

Thanks! It was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I've lost a handful of friends through the years to drugs and booze and I was knocking on death's door.

It's been 4 1/2 years and I can actually say I know what happiness feels like for the first time since I was a teenager. Now I'm a 38 year old with some catching up to do, but all in all...life is beautiful...
