Anons,
I've shared a portion of this story before and I'm reposting it with a bit of an update. I know many of you are discouraged and despondant over how things appear to be going. Me? I've never felt better. Consider:
In 2016 I was in a job with a long commute that was slowly killing me. Cigarettes, hard booze, etc. My day revolved around drinking. Then DJT was elected and promised to drain the swamp. Suddenly, I was paying attention.
In late 2016, I fianlly quit smoking after 25 years of pack/day or more. I step[ped down with an e-cig, but I haven't looked back.
In 2017 - 2018, I turned on to Q first over at 8chan and, well you know that story.
IN 2017, the miserable job was looking grimmer - company had a coup, good people were starting to get picked off, and I knew I was on the list eventually, so…
In 2018, spouse Anon and I started our own company. In late 2019, when the axe fell, we were already uip and running.
By late 2019, things were looking up, although I was 50 lbs overweight (at least) and still drinking almost a handle per day.
Then, 2020, and Covid. We were affected, but we didn't ask for help or apply for a loan or help of anything. Spouse anon picked up a food delivery gig, and we muscled through.
In late 2020, quite suddenly (as a life-long athiest, I will attribute this to divine intervention, a story for a later time) and just prior to the election, I stopped drinking. Cold turkey. I ain't gonna lie, it was tough. But i've been sober coming up on 11 months now, and I haven't looked back. Not once.
Then, in March of 2021, homeschooled kid-Anon gets first job. By June 2021, they promote kid Anon with a raise, offer to pay for college in a STEM field, and put them in charge of QC.
Now, our fledginling business is picking up steam, and I feel like our little family is this island of tranquility in a sea of madness. But the funny thing is, the madness does not shake us. We bring in money almost as needed in a surreal way. Oh, and that 50 lbs? It's gone and more is on the way. I'm now walking a minimum of 7 miles per day through beautiful forests and country roads.
Anons, in the last 5 years, I've become stronger spiritually, mentally, and physically. This is not by accident, and I attribute much of this to Potus DJT, Q, and the rest of you. We are not losing, and I know this in every fiber of my being. Thank you all.
