My best is walking hand in hand with Spirit(meaning God Himself) of the universe!! This yr has honestly been nothing but growth. Everything from dealing w/ different types of personalities @ work to tolerating others in recovery; then it dawned on me that I'm sure others have to put up with my small quirks or whatever-got a laugh out of that. However, meeting one of you person has been the best thing & that was my lovely & sweet friend Ms SL!! Special shoutouts to V , Kris & recently Delilah for kind, encouraging words when I was feeling low & hurting
24 mo of deep gratitude as number six begins

For that I am eternally grateful.
DO NOT DRINK..DRINKING IS DUMB.

We were on the outer edges of the hurricane and got some high winds and flooding rain, but have escaped major problems so far. Couple more days to go. Glad you're ok, Dane. I hope the storm eases up and moves away soon.
Sober and so happy to be that way. I had some thoughts of drinking when I went out for groceries, but they seemed alien, like they were someone else's thoughts. So they were pretty easily dismissed. Maybe I am changing into someone else
. It isn't matching anymore.
Love to all. Glad you're back, Pebbles.
And all other dear 24's

Stay close to us; we are here for you, 100%, and we all understand the rebuilding and repair process necessary in the aftermath of our drinking.
I hope that you don't lose your job and have the chance to prove yourself to your employer.

Day 300 for me today!! 65 more days of glorious sobriety and I'll have reached a year! Unless it's a leap year. Is it a leap year? I always get confused. Actually I think leap years have to be divisible by 4 so 2017 isn't a leap year. Yay! Not that it matters as I want to stay sober every day of every year whether they're leaping or not. Starting with today. 24 more hours please xxxx

I went out for bread and found my mind wandering to the booze isle too. Ugh! Didn't do it thank goodness but it was a trigger kind of evening for sure!
So he is shining his halo currently and jet washing the drive. Good! I've plenty of jobs where that one came from.....heh heh heh!
Have a great day all!

24 please--have a good Monday, all.
