Congrats !!

FRom one hardliner to another congrats, although it is always odd congratulating someone who knows they have little to nothing to do with the fact they are sober today. Maybe a better shout out, would be, way to stay conected to God.

Thanks a lot everyone. I had been meaning to do something about my drinking since about 1977 when it became painfully obvious that somehow my drinking was different than everyone elses. Towards the end I had driven by the AA meeting here in town on a monthly basis but never stopped in. Actually there's two meetings here but one is at noon and I have to work. I don't know if it was fear or the fact that I didn't rally want to quit drinking that kept me from going in. Probably both.
It was one of those meetings that if they were MOTR it would be a tremendous improvement. Fortunatley I tried a few more meetings in neighboring towns and quickly outgrew that group. The results could have been the opposite and I could have gone back to drinking.
Anyways, enough about me. Thanks again everyone.
