Another thing you could do Bobbie love is check out AA head office to see if there is a women's meeting anywhere near....maybe you could start one....I am betting there are a lot of people in the country who find it hard to get any support...heck, doesn't have to be a women's group....could be a lovely new closed all-gender AA meeting....

(Hmmm.....how many genders are there now? I honestly don't know....the questions on forms are getting fascinating....such as: male/female/other, and male/female/unsure. Seriously....I have seen both of those recently).

Just a thought.

Bette Davis scared me too when I was little MITA....
And awesome sauce Casey love....keep on rocking. What video game is it by the way? I have a husband who may well be interested.

4.54am is seriously early Mz Purps.....gosh.

Hey there BBG.....
Drinking chocolate espresso....oh yeah....my life is hard.

There are lots of meetings out here. That's not a bad idea though. I need to find a new home group. Mine is too far to go every week. I'll still go once a month or so there, but would like to find something a little closer.

I've come across the gender question a few times lately.

Chocolate espresso sounds awesome.

I'm sure something will come up Bobbie ~ and maybe you can still visit the women's prison once in a while? A quiet country setting with a dog sounds perfect

Yeah my work shift starts pretty early but I'm okay with it....only possible with no hangover too....no wonder I'm ready to go to sleep super early

Smart Recovery online "Tool Time" meeting tonight at 7pm

Fallout 76. Most people hate it. I love it.

Work is done. Pizza ordered. No poison in the house and I ain't going back outside today.

Bobbie, I'm sure you'll come up with something that works for you time wise and gives you the level of satisfaction you currently get, or even more.

Casey, I had never heard of Fallout 76 so I had to check it out. Seems cool, but kind of weird. I'm not a gaming person at all, so I don't really have anything to compare it to. Have a good night.

End of a long day for me. I switched things up with Ginger Ale tonight - I have not had that in a while - pretty good option.

Tomorrow will be easier. The conference starts breaking up with some people leaving early to catch flights, so no dinner or happy hour commitments.

See you in the A.M.

Day 5. Prime number.

4:42 am is not morning, Purps. It's still night.

Slept great. Now I've got a sorta long-ish day at work but then off the next two days. I'll have to stick close. I also have to give a friend in Austin the bad news that I'm not coming to visit next week as I don't need to be doing that early in sobriety. She'll be OK with it but still uncomfortable breaking the news.

Have a great day, Marchers!

And I'm eating pizza for breakfast. Because I'm a grown-up and I can.

Good freaking morning!

I spoke with Nathan last night. He suggested I take meetings to our county jail as they have none. It will take some political heat and a lot of pressure but I think I am up for the challenge. He has been there a few times and says most that get incarcerated there are there because of substance abuse and they do not offer meetings of any kind. I'm excited about the challenge.

MITA - glad things are winding down. Proud of you.

I'm with Casey, Purps. Your mornings are the middle of the night for me. Although I did wake up around then - I also went back to sleep.

Casey - have a good day. Smart move cancelling your plans for the moment.

Suze - have a great day!

Good morning, BBG!

13th - you out there?

Have an awesome day!

Oh, what a fantastic idea love....and I am super-impressed that Nathan thought of this....perhaps it is something he could get involved in as well from the NA point of view.

Morning Casey and all....

Definitely had some minor thoughts tonight but I'm home safe and ain't gonna act on them. Nothing overwhelming but if it gets that way I'll jump on this website and yell for help.

Thanks for being here, hope everyone is having a nice day.

I was asleep by 8 last night. What the heck? I guess I needed it.

I'm ready for a day of sober awesomeness. Hope you'll all join me!

Day 6. I'll take some more sober awesomeness.

It's so nice to sleep the entire night thru.

Off work today so have to be careful.

Fallout 76 caused tears in my house..my 11yo was all hyped up and then proceeded to melt down when he didn't enjoy it. I'm with you though Casey. I think it's great!
Welcome back sweet boy xxx
