30 Days today!

Wow, it just hit me that it's the 20th.

Thats makes 30 sober days!

How did I do it?

I have been to an AA meeting a minimum of once a day.

I will get to 2 meetings today, I will call my sponsor, and at least 2 others in AA.

Here I am on SR as I am everyday and have found this to be a wonderful addition to my overall program.

I asked my higher power to keep me sober today (on my knees) and I'll thank him tonight.

I have done steps 1,2,3, and a partial 4 and 5.

My last 30 days contain good memories and I have hope for the future today.

Today I have some great friends in AA, I am having fun without booze, and I am at peace.

To the lurkers:

What I am experiencing is available to everyone who wants it!

Join and post here, make that phone call, get to a meeting, just take action and ask for help and you can come along with us.

I may not like everyone in AA but I love all of you.

Ted

Excellent Ted!!! You have grabbed the bull by the horns and have had him pinned for 30 days..... as I am sure you know already the longer you work your program the weaker the bull will get.

Wow! I never got an e-coin before! Thanks Signal.

And thanks to everyone here, even the ones we don't hear from.

I always hope that something I say will help someone, even if I never know.

Hmmmm, e-coin icons? (something for Carol to find)
