The Balmoral Hotel
Edinburgh, Scotland
todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful
that we read the story of the 3rd member of AA yesterday
that the history of Alcoholics Anonymous has been in my face the past few days, especially after seeing a presentation (upclose) by Gail L., of Akron, the AA archivist
that my friend Scott W chaired his final meeting in November yesterday on the topic of Humility
that one of my bestest friends (Rodney) realized a dream yesterday, all because he's sober and participating in life
that we have a new topic on Sobriety Society, drop by and give some input
that Hayden and I get to spend Christmas and New Year's together; the only other time we did, in 2002, I was too drunk to remember any of it
When you arise in the morning, give thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your food, and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies with yourself.

Recovery with a capital R.
Spending the Holidays with someone you love is a beautiful Chiristmas gift and a wonderful way to start off the New Year!
Incredible. That's where my sis had her wedding reception. It's the hotel by the bridge? I was very, very drunk...but I didn't cause a row - hobnest. :-D
Most awesome quote.
(still practicing my socal dialect)
what do you mean his FINAL meeting? that scares me.
I love the story of the third A.A. Nothing like a drunken lawyer. I am glad for you and Hayden too.
