Grateful I found another group that has noon meetings near my office. I have been to a total of 4 meetings so far and I could not find a negative word to say about any of them.

Grateful that AA meetings make me feel so good.

Gee, uh, coming off opiates?? Thanks for that evocative description! ; ) teehee

Grateful for rearranging my afternoon so that I could make the ABA phone meeting. I needed it. Glad I have some idea of what I need to do for my recovery.

And grateful for getting through another little piece of my 4th Step. My sponsor suggested I burn my resentments, which I did. Glad to release that $h!t.

Love and hugs,
Eddie

P.S. Stay warm, Patrick, and all you other "Yankees!"

Grateful for the things I accomplished today. Making complicated cookies to send to my daughter in Texas. They are her favorites. I am sending them to her for Valentines Day which will also be four months sober for me. It's 8:00 pm on a Saturday night and I am not getting smashed. Thank you Thank you Thank you everyone.

I am honestly so grateful for you all that I could just burst. This is the safest place I know to be my complete sober self and feel understood and accepted at the same time.

It is like a miracle to me to feel like I belong somewhere instead of feeling like the perennial outsider.

Grateful to know there is so much love in the world.
