For years Id pick up my chips presented
to me from my sponsor in one of those
beginning or at the end of the month
meetings where multiple birthdays,
including my own would be recognized
and celebrated.

There have been times where my husband
has picked up my chip for me at the Central
office. Then times where Ive ordered special
ones for myself online, Ebay or a Recovery
gift Store.

2 years ago while in Sturgis for their bike
Rally, we rode to the central office where
I picked one up there.

This year for my 25th Sobriety Anniversary,
I will again be picking my chip up in Sturgis
where they will be celebrating their 75th biker
rally.

Picking up a medallion or sobriety chip
is a small token yet represents a huge
humble accomplishment and should be
celebrated because as any alcoholic or
user knows, any day sober or clean is
rewarding and an awesome gift to give
ourselves.
