leading a meeting after only 30 days clean and sober. I didn't think that was done in AA. And Keaton's character was a total ass, just as bad clean as using. What a jerk!
That Keaton's character was leading a meeting and still a jerk at 30 days says something either about the author's non-knowledge of AA, wherever the character was supposed to be from, or the quality of his sobriety. I have a feeling one of the reasons "newcomers" are discouraged from "leading/speaking" could be that it's a danger of being too much of an ego trip. Just a thought.

Thanks for asking. Wow..this is a record for me..three whines in a day.
It's just..my mother and I are very low on supplies. I needed to get to
the store yesterday, and came down ill last night. We are both stubborn
and have a lot of pride. Don't want to call anyone to come and help us.
Wonder where I get it from? But it's nothing that can't absolutely
wait until tomorrow..I just hate feeling helpless.
And I don't have any fizzy water.
Sherry...stop! No moor poor meeees... lol
Hugs n Stuff back

My whine today is that a friend of mine is a wonderful seamstress and would be easily able to make a dog coat just like the one my beagirl has, only she doesn't do 'making' things, only alterations. I have the material and supplies to make a coat just like the one I can't find anymore that fits perfectly and is warm and dry.
THere was an alterations place downtown but the seamstress there wanted $65 to make a little dog coat! I can't afford that much and don't think it would take that much effort (for a good sewer) to be worth $65. Am so frustrated I could scream, but that won't get the dog coat made.
Damn!!

Ay Carumba!!!!
I've just got my heart rate slowed down to almost normal!!! I was just sitting here at the pc in my very quiet house. It's just me here right now, it's finally cool enough to turn the AC off & open the windows. It's a beautiful day here.
All I can hear is the faint/muted screams of the people having fun at the carnival down the street. They all scream in unison as they get spun around, on the rides.
I have to set the scene a bit more. On my kitchen counter/pass-thru I have a two tiered plate stand. It stands about two feet high including the metal pineapple at the top. I like to keep interesting stuff on the plates...right now I have some pretty snail shells and a giant seed pod- that is about a foot long.
So...I was sitting here in the next room when I heard a very sudden noise and 'stuff' spilling out across the tiled floor!!! I was sure that whatever caused the ruckus was a 'critter' of a fairly large size because the sound was LOUD!
I ran out there to find that the seed pod had exploded!!! Yep..it could only happen to me! I could tell by the inside of the pod that it held 8 seeds each the size of a penny.
I could only find 6 seeds close by. I found #7 ten feet away where it had a flown over the dining room table to my sliding glass door. I found #8 on the other side of the counter.....it had shot over the plate stand....and into my kitchen.
I usually collect the 1-2 foot pods from the poinciana trees- they look like giant brown grean beans, it's scary to think of the force that might come from one of those.
Holy flying, exploding seed pods!!!!

I enrolled in online school and have to do a math/reading assessment to see what I know. Passed the reading one, no problem.
Do you know how many DECADES it's been since I did fractions? Thanks to google, I have gotten a refresher, but boy, do I feel old. Now I've got to figure out percentages and remember how to square numbers....my brain hurts!
