10,512,000 minutes!

Ok, so for us math-challenged, that translates to 20 years... which apparently is how long I have been clean and sober. Complete miracle.

The big reminder for me is that I could never have done it alone, so I have a gratitude list a mile long, starting with my family and friends.

What a great life I have today - and it's so far from what I would have been able to imagine in 1988. My current career didn't even exist yet, for example. It would never have occurred to me that I'd like to live in Texas, far from either ocean. And on and on.

I wish I could type up the whole list of things for which I'm grateful, but I am still not the world's most patient person. Just know that if you know me, you helped me.

WOW wow wow.

You are a super star. And I am sorry I wasn't there to celebrate with you.

I am proud to be your sister.
