Sober in a Snow Storm
Chilling out here in my house in northern Colorado. The first large snow storm of the year is passing through. This is the first snow storm in years that I didn't have to go out and pack up on numerous twelve packs to weather the storm. I don't need alcohol anymore. I love the AA program and I think I will like this website!
Stay sober my friends.
This makes me think about all the people that had to go through the shakes and hallucinations during Katrina. I wonder what percentage of New Orleans residents were very bitter that they couldn't get their fix.
I am going to have some quality time with my family!

I'm in Laramie! It looks like we have about 8 inches or so right now. I just moved here from Tennessee though so I think half an inch is a lot! It's amazing how much clearer and simpler things are when I'm not drinking. I can appreciate things that I would have never even given a second thought to while drinking.

I am in Fort Collins. We maybe have 6 to 8 inches right now. You guys down south get a lot more snow sometimes. Stay warm.

Well, I live in Fort Worth, Texas. We just had a big cold front blow through too... I think it's like 50 degrees outside!!! burrrrr! I can't even remember the last time I saw snow here. I don't think we got any last year. The year before I think it snowed an inch or two overnight, but then it melted by mid-day. Sometimes the water freezes on the roads and there's ice everywhere... they cancel school when that happens.

Funny thing is, they did the exact same thing here in Cambridge last year. We got like three inches of snow and everything was cancelled - school, work, trains - guess the Brits aren't used to the snow anymore or something.

16" here on the East side of Monument, but it looks like its finally stopped. Haven't left the house except to shovel since Tuesday evening. Certainly makes it easy to stay sober when there's no booze in the house and the weather is like this.
