    Be strong-
    We define ourselves by the best that is in us, not the worse that has been done to us.
    Be constructive. Clear the word of CAN'T

      Trying something new

      Again, thank you all for your support.

      Sheri - Thank you for the link to the Big Book. Some of you may remember my garage sale I had in late July...well guess what I sold? The Big Book and the 12 Steps....DOH!!! Hindsight is 20/20 right?

      Anyway, did NOT go to a meeting over the weekend (as many of you have probably guessed...ha). BUT, I do have a schedule and I am looking forward to going to a Women's Meeting, there is one tonight at 7:00pm. I've been to them before but never really let myself get absorbed into them, kinda just sat there thinking "I'm not like these people". Plus is doesn't help that they always seem to be held in dark, stinky places. Now I know I'm just nitpicking, so enough of that, time to suck it up and just do it.
      :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

      Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.

        Good for you K9 and like Sheri said you also have me thinking very serious about going, I have downloaded some meetings in my area, keep us posted :l
        Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

          You sold the BB and 12x12????!!!!!

          Hopefully they might have helped another sufferer out there.

          Anyhow let us know how the meeting goes and remember to look for the similarities(you probably already know that one though!).

            Sheri-
            Thanks for the link to AA online, I'm seriously going to check that out tonight from home. I've already spend most of my workday here on MWO...but I need it today. One day of slacking won't hurt anything, and it's THE most important place for me to be today!

              Hey K9 I hear you on that one, lovely to see you back.
              Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

                Hello everyone,just wanting to quietly whisper that today was my 30th day virtually AF. I once had half a glass of wine, and on another occassion 1 beer, both times while eating out with a friend - and NO desire to have a drop more.
                Love you all.
                make the least of the worst, and the most of the best - everyday.

                        Find a sponsor as soon as you can, preferably a woman with lots of
                        experience that can guide you. I've been in aa for a while now and
                        had made some nice friends that I can talk to and hang out with
                        outside of the meetings.

                        Sober friends that you can see on a weekly basis is a tremendous
                        help, it sure worked for me.
