Jim, my holidays were great! I hope you enjoyed yours as well! This was my first Christmas sober in 8 years, quite a gift in itself!

I agree with you about the free therapy sessions and the blind leading the blind. I have been fortunate enough to be able to find a few meetings a week that tend to be constructive, and I always leave feeling better than I came. I always walk away with something, kwim?

I happen to like large meetings that contain people in all stages of recovery, It reminds me of where I was and where I want to be. I find listening to someone new as helpful as listening to someone who has been in the program for years.

I hope you have a great New Year! It is such a blessing to not have to put quit drinking on my resolutions list this year!!! Gods Speed to you Jim.
