This is who I am

My father-in-law

You are some character! Dad of 4 boys and 1 girl, grandpa of 5 grandsons and 4 granddaughters. You love every one of them.
From the day you were 14, you left school and you started to work as a painter. For all of your life, you have had the same employer. Not many people can say that. Some years have been really rough, because alcohol affected your life.. Until the day you decided you wanted that life to change. Eighteen years ago, you gave up on alcohol and you haven't had a drop since. I do respect that very much. It's been a true battle for you and your family. But it's been a big improvement and achievement as well. You do not like to miss your AA meetings. Every Monday night you're there, to meet up with your peers. You have welcomed so many members, and you have seen so many drop out.. But some do stick to their promise and they stay sober for the rest of their life. Having one more drink could ruin it all.. so you don't tempt yourself. I'm proud of you!
