you eager beaver you.:)  I just love your spirit and how you are embracing life.  yep, we have another thing in common....I've never been an alcohol drinker, but was in a relationship with a binge drinker for 8 years.  I got involved in Al-Anon and couldn't believe all the things I learned, especially what I was doing wrong by being an enabler.  well, he ended up marrying another alcoholic, and I should probably think my lucky stars.  I also like to write poetry and wrote one about Al-Anon.  I'll try to post it on here.

You're welcome! Hugs to you too!
