First AA meeting today
 
Day 4! Still going to my first AA meeting at 11 a.m. Found out it is going to be a pot luck...YAY...FOOD! LOL. I barely have anything here so not sure what to make, but Im thinking maybe deviled eggs.... Yup, that is what I will make. Sure wish I had a deviled egg dish to put them in though! I only have a plate and then they slide all over. Oh well, it will work. :danse1b: :danse1b:

Hi guys and gals. Okay, a little more time to talk...but very tired, been a long day! Wow, actually, so tired that I really dont know what to say! I really dont think, no I know I wont, do the 90 meetings in 90 days thing. Right now I am already working almost 60 hours a week, plus have kids, plus have my gram. I will maybe try to make it every *other* day. I am shooting for my next meeting to be Monday at 5:30... Or well, Tuesday cuz I have the counselor on Monday. Anyway though, I will go back. Beside, I accidentally left the plate I had my deviled eggs on there! I have to! LOL. More tomorrow...need to relax... Love ya's!
