Gee 44 years is a long time. Do you ever wonder, 'what if I had kept drinking?'

Welcome and congratulations with your sober time.
I’m not there yet but would be close if I hadn’t continued with my way of stopping and putting the plug in the jug.
When I got here the old timers were tough but with love and help.
I never thought washing ash trays, making coffee, setting up halls etc, would help me get and be sober. How wrong I was! Then I got to the point of not wanting to turn the hall key over to another newcomer.
Those are good remembering when moments and people.

BE WELL
