The 2012 Challenge

Postby Rebecca » 02 Jan 2012 21:50

Hiya everyone,

As requested, here's a thread for those of you who would like to endeavor to be sober the entire year for 2012! There's nothing like a new year to make a fresh start! \:)/

Who's up for the challenge? Should we start a list like last year?

Good luck to one and all! ;)?
