For the last week or so I've thought about starting my own blog as I really start my recovery from alcoholism. It helps me to talk out loud or to write down my thoughts...it makes me more able to sort them out. However, I've been hesitant because of the idea that putting it in a blog would make me vulnerable because I'd be publishing my story in a very accessible manner. A fear I've carried for much of my life, I'm not sure if I'm ready to hear what people would have to say... That is assuming that anyone read it and that my blogs would have something in them worth commenting on.<br /><br />I want to thank you. Thank you for writing and thank you for being honest about being in a rough spot in your life. I hate it when people try to pretend that as soon as you get sober life is always great. I really enjoyed reading your blog and I plan to keep coming back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-75518419288712521202010-01-23T07:34:37.241-07:002010-01-23T07:34:37.241-07:00My fellow bloggers inspire me -- it is a learning ...My fellow bloggers inspire me -- it is a learning environment.

This is my first time posting a comment. I ...Mary<br /><br />This is my first time posting a comment. I found your blog by searching running and alcohol or some variation of those two words. I actually went back and read all your previous blogs, it took a while but I finally finished!<br /><br />There are many reasons why I read your blog, mainly there are many similarities that I share with you on one level or another.<br /><br />1) I hope one day my mom will admit she is an alcoholic and can be sober<br />2) Like you, my mom has 1 son and 2 daughters (my brother is in the service like your son)<br />3) I run, used to do marathons but no more. I would really like to do a triathlon some day.<br />4) Someone close to me is also in the medical records field<br />5) I am learning how to knit<br />6) Most important, I know I never want to be like my mom (or my grandmother who also was a heavy drinker)<br /><br />So I hope on days even when you think you have nothing to say to still continue to blog. <br /><br />One more thing, do you think you would ever consider posting your pizza recipe? It sounds so good. Actually all the food you make sounds great, including your pies! As you can tell I obsessed with food, which is why I do run, so I don’t become as big as a house!!!<br /><br />AdrianAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16472085.post-3878694187690236052010-01-22T15:46:45.982-07:002010-01-22T15:46:45.982-07:00It's the crazy time of year.

We have had a suicide in our recovery community, people have slipped and there are lots of newcomers. <br /><br />January is a big birthday month, too.
