Holidays are tough [View all]

Hi I'm Irisblue. This room has been quiet, so I'm checking in. How are you doing? This is my first year as a single woman after 9 years. Triggers abound. I have plans to go to the addithon and what ever womens' meetings I can find here. There will be rooms, everywhere, for us. Keep it simple, just for today.
