Lyrics from 'Pencil full of Lead' by Paolo Nutini

I got a sheet for my bed,
And a pillow for my head
I got a pencil full of lead,
And some water for my throat
I've got buttons for my coat; and sails on my boat
So much more than I needed before

I just wanted to make a point that I feel is really helpful when your an recovering addict. Surrounding your self with good people, clean people who care about your best interests and who aren't corrupt.

Hi Winners
Having had the pleasure to know personally a few of you who contribute here,
I'm sure there's a few of us who had exhausted our enablers and were sick and tired of being sick and tired.
