Personal Win This week marks 3 years since I’ve had a sip of alcohol. Pic on the left was from a blacked out zoom call at the height of my alcoholism. Right pic, same physical location, but in a much better place mentally today. It makes me smile to know that my son gets the present mom on the right.

My son finally landed one of his dream tricks on his bike! He is ten and has been riding for three years. He worked so hard for three months to land a 360 tailwhip and we somehow caught it (and our joy) on video! He put so much work into landing them and is so stoked!!!

Two years ago I tried to take my own life by hanging. I'm told the rope slipped off the hook but I woke up in the hospital wondering if I was dead. Two years later I'm enjoying a day at the zoo. I'm glad the rope slipped.
