Grateful to be a small part of a great whole today. 27 years, ODAAT. Nights and weekends. In a row.

For the past 10 years or so, I've always deflected praise and congratulations as I feel the success belongs to AA and my higher power. Seems to have worked despite me at times. The power of the program; the fellowship; the love, tolerance, and forgiveness; the freedom to stumble my way with grace along this path.

That's awesome Mum. I am truly happy for you and all that know and love you! The benefits of sobriety and AA are truly miracles!

What temps and RH are you experiencing in your cooler?

Hey man, I totally understand how life goes. Glad to have you back. Not sure if you were around when I was posting about our online meeting/herf, but we do it every Sunday at noon EST. It'd be sweet if you could make it!

Today is my 10,220th consecutive day of continuos sobriety and recovery from a hopeless condition of mind and body. I find myself doing a lot of reflection of what my life (and the lives of those I love) was like and what our lives are like today. That contrast does not logically seem possible. But I know that is the miracle of my higher power, AA program and its members following the same path of hope. This reflection is always an emotional thing for me and fills my soul with gratitude. 2-10-91

I am thankful this site has a place we can share our hope.

Thanks Jason. I hope you make it to Erans again this September. It would be great to see and visit again. Rumor has it @WNYTONY might be coming too? That would be the highlight of my year. Love that guy, although we have never met.
