It won't be a long haul if us "oldies but goodies" link up arms and hold
each other up and tell each other funny stories.   I'm thinking your
memory is still intact and you haven't forgotted what you learned back
then.   It still works that way...if you work it that way.

I can understand that.  It took a great deal me for me to get to al anon.  Now I love it. There are some days though when its hard to come here and still admit to being so hopeless with certain skills.

Its like riding a bike. I was gone for many years, too. But there is a part that got ingrained back then and its right there ready for the light of day again...mark my words, you will be just fine. Welcome back! Hugs, J.

Welcome Home, ((((Robyn)))!

I too have been in and out of this program for the past 7 years. I'm back for good now - 3rd time is the charm. :)

As Jean says, it's like riding a bike. Much of it came back to me very quickly and I was also able to see that even though I hadn't been "in" the program for a few years, I had indeed made progress from that very first day.

Now that I'm back in the program, actively working it, I can see progress even over the past couple of months. I am so grateful and glad you're back.
