24 Hour Recovery Connection Part 294
Our son, Mark, works for Carnival Cruise Line. He's on the Entertainment "Fun" Staff. Any organized fun activity....BINGO, Karaoke, Trivia, Lip Synch, Deck Parties etc you'll find him working. He just started working on the Carnival Freedom. After Hurricane Harvey, Mark started his new 6 month contract. Yes, 6 months on the Freedom,no days off.
So, pretty much the itinerary is Belize, Honduras & Cozumel. Now, other ships will also be going to these Ports, due to the immensity of damage to the Eastern Caribbean ports.
I know the Corporation doesn't want to lose their ships ....kinda tongue in cheek here ... so Mark, along with the Crew and passengers should be safe. It's just one after another though!
If by any chance anybody here might be going on the Freedom, definetly say Hello! 9 year Sober Anniversary yesterday, the day after he turned 17. I wouldn't mind if you took a photo with him either .... 📸💛
Heck, I'll check in for my next twenty four while I'm here ...
Love,
Bobbi

Beautiful people good morning
Barbieken congrtulations on those 9 years of one day at the time.
My sponsor took his 10 years last night

24 more for this ...... alcoholic in need of freedom
He underwent a nine and a half hour operation. On the eighth day his wife picked him up from the hospital and said, "You want to go home?" to which he replied, "No, I want to go to the office."

What is it that drives us men to such extremes in our work? Are we afraid of the intimacy we could develop with those who love us and whom we love? Are we driven to prove over and over that some old painful self-doubt is untrue? Is this how we feel masculine? Or are we trying to control our addictive problems by constant work? Perhaps we still have more to learn about surrender and powerlessness.
It is especially common to recovering men that the excesses of work unconsciously replace the excesses of addiction and codependency. This too is an unhealthy escape. We must confront our relationship to work if we are to continue on our path of spiritual awakening. It is good to have some unplanned, unstructured time in each day.
Today, help me remember that being good at my work is only one of my qualities.
