I had some messy-list-problems yesterday, so please excuse any omissions!
Searching for patron saints, I looked for the patron saint of trees, but couldn’t find one. Saint Joseph is the patron saint of woodworkers, though, and so the patron of the shipbuilders for Aeneas who chopped down Cybele’s sacred grove, and the Renaissance artists when they carved out of wood. And the furniture maker and builder.
Christ in the Carpenter’s Shop, detail, George de la Tour, 1645, in the Louvre, Paris.
If this is what they meant by humanism, I'm for it. See you all here tomorrow!
And remember to check in later for the Monday-to-Sunday list, where I try to correct all my mistakes!

And that is enough.
7:18 AM. 24 more, by grace.

And now, because it’s Sunday…
Let’s celebrate the folks on this thread who made a commitment here within a 24 hour period, 7 days in a row, over the last week. That’s every day, rain or shine, rush or leisure. You all are rock-solid – congratulations on the week, and thank you for sharing your commitment here!

A special shoutout to lanier, PeppermintPatty, site1Q84, and CaseyW who are on the Monday-to-Sunday list for the first time since I’ve been keeping it!
To anyone who wonders what I think of all this commitment stuff
...I think that anyone who can do a week can do a week every week every month every year! That’s why I look for you here every day. And if you’re not on the list for whatever reason, the next week begins with NOW!

8am here. I've definitely been letting some things slide lately and not being as diligent with recovery/meetings/personal care and been considering drinking again in the far off future of 'one day',
I feel like I could end up picking up a drink if I don't get on top of it all
But won't drink for 24 more hours

9.13 AM here in Melbourne, the start of another working week
I'm off to my first meeting at my AA home group in quite a few months.
Got a bit exasperated over some of the dogmatists.
Still I see it as a worthwhile fellowship.
Getting close to month 25
....& watch those triggers.
