motivation - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

pattyspaw · 09-22-2008, 08:16 AM

this morning I got an unusual motivation for going to meetings in the evening, which is what I need to do as that is when I drink; my guy gets up really early and has a bad habit of not flushing the toilet at different times; this morning I asked him to flush and he snapped at me that sometimes I don't flush, my come back was that's only when you are asleep; it ticked me off enough to make a list of meetings to go to in the evenings, maybe not the best reason but if it gets me there it's a start; so I am going to a meeting tonight
