My apartment is in a "elderly poor" project.

Tonight a church group delivered a Thanksgiving box..Frozen
Turkey and trimings.

As I am alone..and not fond of turkey..

What a pleasure to give it to a single Dad..feeding 4.

'Pass It On" has nore than 1 meaning!!

Tonight I was in a bar..it was the only place to wait for a ride home. It had been 2 /3 years since I last perched on a stool.

How sad the patrons seemed..pathetic losers... loudly boosting their egos.

Eureka!! I no longer ency drinkers!! :lol

Interesting meeting on Denail....and we finished the club Christmas tree. Tonight the Come As You Are Church guy delivered bread to my neighborhood...and Dave shared fresh picked Fl. citrus at noon.

Hmm..Tangerine on Oat Bran? Another serene day.

My son came over..asked me to attend a DAV party tomorrow night.
there was a time he would nwever have asked to take me anywhere!! :shades:

Went to Gregs 1st anniversary and Steve T spoke. Met Gregs parents from Ky. both over 20 in AA. And sat with Steves sister...40 days sober. I simply love ro see kin in AA.

Stephen E...my late brother would have his 20 year medallion this month. I just bet they serve chocolate cake in the Big Sky Meeting.

Finished my Christmas decorating... my 1st in this apartment. I will stay here this year as the trip up to Md. just too daunting. Added plus...both S and S will be around.

I love these peaceful days...rainy and gloomy outside

warm and shiny indoors.

Hmm..after my noon meeting I went to the store. after checking out...I dropped my billfold. When I got home...a message on my machine..

"Carol...Michelle from AA. I found your billfold and it is at the stores office"

The store was packed...what are the odds?


Thanks God for looking after me.

Unhappy

Sad for my Grandsons. Debroah died at 48.

She was a excellent Mom when they were small.

Then came alcohol and prescription drugs.

Goodbye Deb... your misery is finished.

Home from our Christmas dinner party speakers meeting.

What love and fellowship. Makes me sorry for the non AAers.

I sat betwen 2 newcomers to our group..Matt and Glen ...retreads still trying. I pray they will hook in this time.

I sold the raffle tickets...raised $140 for our flower fund.

Did not win a prize but Sherry gave me hers... a Santa cause I collect them.
I gave Glen a circle and triangle for his truck as I had 2.

The spirit of giving is rhe best feeling!!

Doug was late to our meeting..on a lunch break from DUI school across the street.

I asked him to take our left over party dessert tray back over to the class.

Attraction?? Pass it on??
