I steam the green beans then add garlic and butter and slivered almonds, Yummy.
Candied Yams are Sweet Potatoes - Boil until soft, peel skin off, put in baking dish with melted butter, orange juice and brown sugar and bake until browned. OMG they are sooo good

Do they taste a lot different than roast potatoes??

You DON'T know what my head is telling me. I never mentioned praying (I don't pray) I never mentioned Buddha (WTF), I never implied I wasn't going to a meeting (I am).
Why do you think I am NOT KEEPING IT SIMPLE?
I really don't know what your problem with me is?

I think your problem is dishonesty with yourself stone.
I think you complicate a simple program....
But enough said.....I dont have a problem with you and thats just my Observation of you.....carry on and continue do it your way .....you will get plenty of support Im sure of that.

Just because I said the Program is more important than meetings does not mean I don't think meetings are important, I am still going every day.
How am I dishonest with myself? It is not fair to make a comment like that without saying why.
How do I complicate a simple program? Because I said I felt something spiritual happen in a meeting? Again, not fair to say it without explaining it.
What do you mean support for my way? First of all it is not MY way, I am doing AA. Support from who? Who is that a dig at?

I don't believe anything is going on with Nel, she's posting and you are taking everything to heart. Take what you need and leave the rest. You have your defense mechanism up today, let it down, it will only hurt you. How about reading the Acceptance Prayer might help with your mood today.

I am still going every day. Good because you didnt before . ....I am hoping it will make a difference if you mix more with members of the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous.
question...How am I dishonest with myself? It is not fair to make a comment like that without saying why.
answer.......one reason is because you constantly tell yourself your different or it wont work for you.......why do YOU think you drink over and over. But you would be better ask your sponsor. did he not say the same to you?
Question >>How do I complicate a simple program? Because I said I felt something spiritual happen in a meeting? Again, not fair to say it without explaining it....
Answer No not because of that necessarily but because of many things. You seem to still search and look very deep into every little thing when its right under your nose. {Again just an observation}
question: What do you mean support for my way? First of all it is not MY way, I am doing AA. Support from who? Who is that a dig at?
answer You have been doing it your way now a long time I believe. Not a dig just a fact!
I can find support for everything I do....in and out of AA...right and wrong! BUT this is about self honesty.
Remember Stone having said all of that......................Im on your side!! It may not sound like it but I am. I could be sweet to you... but that may also kill you!!
Stone......Trust God, Clean house, help others!

I'm tired of the b.s. too. I have a dr's appt today with a hand surgeon. The carpal tunnel is really hurting. Sometimes I am in tears from the pain. Hoping they can inject it or something today to give me some relief. If not, I guess I'm going to have surgery over Christmas break.
Trying to stay in today.
We are leaving for hubby's parents tomorrow. I don't mind going and seeing them but my bro and sis in laws do A LOT of drinking and one is always on pills. I don't feel like drinking or taking pills but I hate being around all that b.s.
Sorry for the negative post
I am grateful to be sober for Thanksgiving and I'm glad I will remember it and am less likely to do anything I need to do amends for later :bounce
