Scott and I are back from New York City.
We took a boat tour around Manhattan Island.
This picture is taken from that boat. I'll post some other pix of our trip beginning tomorrow.
Today, however, is
Independence Day.
Enjoy it! With family, friends or even by yourself.
todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful
for the freedoms given to us by our forefathers
for the continuing freedoms we all enjoy and mostly take for granted
that Scott and I had a great 4 days in NYC and made it back safely, sober and sane
that we accomplished everything we planned to do and more!
for the many people we met both in and out of the rooms of AA (more posts about the trip to follow this week)
that we went to meetings each day (except yesterday) in different locations; they were all different but in a very comfortable way, they were all the same as every meeting I've ever attended
that, with this trip out of town, I intentionally stopped 2 personal longevity records (1) my streak of going to an AA meeting every day stopped yesterday at 1,010 days (2) my personal "blog every day" streak ended Saturday at 569 days --- this is actually a big deal for this very anal-retentive, obsessive-compulsive nutcase

"I intentionally stopped 2 personal longevity records"
Good for u ~
I really like that shot of lady liberty. I've done that boat ride and it's cool. To think of our ancestors years and years ago making that trip.
I am proud of your breaking your anal "stuff". Glad you guys made it home safe!
Hi dAAve! (waves)
Sounds like you had a great trip.
Can't wait to see the pics! I bet it was a great trip! : ) Congrats on letting go of those two streaks...... but I'm sure glad you're back blogging!!! Its not the same without you!
Brings back memeories of the many first we encounter in sobriety. I remember well the *first* day I stopped going to three meetings a day. I was around 1 and a half years sober. I thought it would be a far worse experience than it turned out to be. Then came the *first* day I didn't go to a meeting. Again far better than I expected. I gues it's the whole expectation/fulfillment thing.
I love this pic and you! there is a lot of love here
