I'm not a fool (well I've done foolish things, haven't we all, that's why we are here
) There's no meetings here, it's impossible to get to one. I'm very active in or church, am drawing closer to God and have gotten honest with our pastor and his wife plus several friends. Thinking about online/phone sponsorship as well. I'd like to go to meetings but it isn't an option at this stage
