The question of "whom do I tell about my alcoholism & AA involvement?" has been something I've thought about for a while. I know that a lot of my AA friends don't mind if everyone knows about their recovery in AA. I wish I could be like that, but I'm not. Obviously, there are plenty of people who do know. But I haven't told everyone in my life. I've read in the literature that it's not required that I tell everyone about my alcoholism & AA membership. I've discussed this w/my sponsor as well. That's why it's called Alcholics ANONYMOUS. I'm adopting the philosophy that if/when the time is right, I'll tell people.
Life is good here. We're in the middle of projects & positive challenges. My husband & I have a few opportunities to do some things wo/each other: for him, a mens' retreat sponsored by my Sat. night AA group (the AAers have adopted him as a kind of honorary AAer), & for me, a tasting tour of Little Italy in Boston w/some of my friends. These opportunity are good for long-married, retired people.
Take care everyone.
Mary
