Just got back home a little while ago. E-ghad... there was a 21 yr old first-timer there and the old codgers found it necessary to lecture to this kid for 2 hours about their multiple dui's, crappy marriages, where they worked, how they thought about every single solitary individual they've met in the past 10 years, why they didn't like this or that or this-guy or that-guy because he said this or that to them one day back in '74.....on and on. I swear.......it's a frickin miracle anyone stays sober given some of the CRAP that goes on at some of the meetings around here. (there, I feel powerful again now that I've ranted about how much better things would be if everyone just followed MY instruction...... lol
)
Anyway, my guy got a 2 or 3 week extension so we'll see. Given that time is limited and that the softer/gentler/loving approach hasn't had much impact..... I think it's time to start some "in-home" big book study. I guess I'll find out real quick just how serious he is.
thanks for the input guys (and by "guys" i mean the gals too.
)
