Almost Through Day 1

[MonsterMedic]

This is only the beginning for us early HOFers. Way to go with the first 100. Sorry about the dancing pole in the bar car. I got a bit carried away before your stop.
Glad to have you on board.

That's ok, Raider. I'm not much of a dancer, anyway. Good thing they restocked the booze, though!!!

Remember to stay focused on ODAAT. The only beginning is when you wake up in the morning... you quit for the day and keep your word.

We are all in the same boat today.... Whether you are 10, 100, 500, 1000 days quit. Just own this day and don't get ahead of yourself. Quit on.

Thanks, Derk. I'm only focusing on quitting today. That's how I've gotten this far. That's how I'll stay quit for good.

HoF is bad ass! I liked what you said about the spreadsheet, and I will be looking at July right now. Good shit in that post.

Nice one, Dude. Good to see you up in here.

I'm with you all day.

[E&C's Dad]

Congrats on reaching the HOF EMT! You have been a Monster of quit for 100 straight days! Well done. Keep it rolling today. I am proud to be quit with you all day long!!!

[MonsterMedic]

Glad I could help. Keep pushing through. If you need another number, PM me.

I'm not sure if anyone else looks through the spreadsheet for their quit groups, but you should. I was looking through the June group's spreadsheet tonight and noticed some tabs at the bottom.

One of the tabs is labeled "Cave/Lost." I clicked on that tab and saw something that disgusted me: 90 people on that list. Ninety. 9, 0. There are 49 of us who have faithfully been posting roll since day one. Of those 49, there are 14 100%ers.

I often say this in the introductions of new folks who come to the forum: "this forum and the people on it are only as helpful as you allow them to be." There's no good reason that our group has 1/3 of the people it should approaching the HOF.

Am I proud to be part of the June Quit Saloon? You're damned right I am. Am I disappointed that we weren't able to help 90 people stay quit and lead better lives? You're damned right I am.

I will celebrate with everyone who is reaching the HOF, including myself in 5 days. However, I decided to post something about this to put things into perspective. Anyone can cave at any time. We are addicts and it's a risk that we all face. We have to band together and help each other through the tough times so that the "Cave/Lost" list doesn't gain another person.

Thanks for posting this Monster. Had a tough night tonight and was flipping through the site looking for a little inspirational nugget to plug that last leak in the dam for the evening. This was it. Only just ending day 4, but I'm still quit with you.
