Bio
I am in my late forties. After twenties years of drinking each day, I am sober for over a year. Sobriety is wonderful, I can think for the first time in many years. Get this folks, I am an elementary school principal, and a damn good one. No one knew, I hid it well. I have many things to share about my journey and life. Some funny and some sad. Enjoy life, we only get one. This is for my one, which I now live with enthusiasm and joy. I'm a miracle. I see. I feel. I hurt. I live.

I'm sober.

It took me twenty years.
