I have owned 11 bikes in my life and am addicted to them! Got this one 10th November, 2011
Don't need therapy lol when you ride a bike!
I am living on the capricorn coast, in qld, australia near the barrier reef & the islands off the coast in cooee bay, yeppoon. I share my life with my partner Tazz & our front yard is the beach so is beautiful.
Look on the right side of map up north for Rockhampton and I live 30 minutes east on the coast.
I have 1 cat "with attitude" who is 9 & a staffie dog from animal rescue who is approximately 3-4 years old.
My Mum and brothers and sisters and their families all live where i used to live on the sunshine coast which is 8 hours south of me & my son who is 37 & grandson who is 14 live in Brisbane which is 10 hours away. I miss them all as we are an extremely close family.
None of my family are alcoholics and I was brought up in a wonderful christian home with so much love.
I started drinking at about 16 and continued to do so for 27 years except for when i was pregnant and didnt drink much when my son was young. I was married and divorced 3 times before I got to AA.
I was a very sad, depressed drunk full of self pity and always was miserable, especially at the end of my drinking.
I rang my mum one night and asked her to commit me to the "nut" ward and she wouldnt and suggested talking to lifeline. I did and they referred me to AA and within 20 minutes, a lady was at my home talking to me. She took me to my first few meetings and everyone was wonderful. I related straight away and knew I was an alcoholic. I drank before, after and in between meetings for 7 weeks and then finally did what was suggested, and got a sponsor and went through the 12 steps. When we had finished, I had no desire to drink or drug again, and that was over 11 years ago.
I have done numerous service jobs in my AA group and district. One was office manager for the district which involved 14 groups and I did that for 18 months and I resigned as that was long enough.
I love my computer, bikes, my animals, crotchet, listening to music and spending time with my friends and at aa meetings.

Thank you for the welcome. To bad that meetings on here are not being attended. This is such an awesome idea!! I hope to find some good connections though to help me stay in touch with AA members. I am getting ready to move out of the country to South Africa so I am trying to find ways to keep my self connected until I find my way there.
