HAPPY NEW YEAR.............We made it through another year and what a joy it is to see the new year come through.......

TODAY I HAVE 21 YEARS OF RECOVERY IN AA and I am proud to be here............................I still feel like it was just yesturday that I can to this place.......But No matter how many years you have behind you it still feels new.........except that someone like me has been hanging out a longer time..........Yes....I still have moments when I would like to go out and drink like the rest of you......but my willingness to hang in there kicks in and I find other things to distract my mind..................go to meetings , talk to friends in recovery, call someone that is willling to talk and stay in the now of my recovery...............Read the Big Book from cover to cover and so much more....................Work the steps and start at the beginning.................All this works..........

Hugs and love to you all and I will check in later...........
