I have had an absolutely wonderful day. It started with a 6:30 a.m. meeting and ended with a 7:30 p.m. meeting - which I just got home from. I spoke at both of the meetings. Speaking at two meetings in one day is a bit indulgent... especially since some of my friends came to both meetings.
I am just so grateful for a loving God who has been so so so so good to me. I could have never earned this sobriety, this sober life, these sober friends, this sober family!
To look out from the podium and see my daughter and her ex sitting there - both sober - was almost more than I could bear. In the best possible way.
I am utterly spent and heading for bed. I need to be up early to get to the 6:30 meeting tomorrow morning.
I always watch whether a person goes to a meeting on the day AFTER their birthday. And I think it is a good sign when they do. Too many decide to rest on their laurels after a big one. Think I will try not to do that.
Thank you for all of your well-wishes. They are truly appreciated.

I don't entirely agree that you didn't earn your sobriety. Without your participation, it simply would not have happened (IMHO).
Here's to a happy weekend.
6:30 is just way too early for a Saturday morning! Are you gonna wear your new earrings?
You just keep getting up and going back. That's the miracle of you. No excuses.
I have no internet access today. Qwest will send someone tomorrow. If I get any energy later I will go somewhere with wi fi and post comments - which I can't do on my blackberry.
Ok, I figured out how to post comments from my blackberry. But it is a pain.
Thanx again for your considered example...
Would there were 1.9 million more like you...
Blessings and aloha...
happy beginning of your 26th year :-)
MC, glad that you had a good day. I am posting from my I Phone and agree that it' a pain
