Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

I sobered up on Guam out in South Pacific....I did have over year sober by white knuckles....no program before I hit Hawaii and had to drink alcohol to mark having another state in my belt....I am into the mid 40's state wise....I put the booze in slowly until finding some drinking friends on Guam.....then just started same out crap....drinking and driving was my MO....I also was terrified of being caught for drunk driving....I never did but it was partly the reason I quit.....other part was one of the drinking friends simply was gay and asking me to go to bed with him.....no thanks I think I am going to quit drinking...June 14,1995 I had quit....not sure that it was not few days before that I ran out of beer or not but I hit my second Guam AA meeting and stayed....I had a call today...a text today from former sponsor and a text from guy in the recovery business who sent me a virtual XXVIII coin....and I had a talk with two sponsors of three today one AA one DA....the other is SA (spenders anonymous)....I am told not to call him as his wife does not like him being on phone....it is a good day....I did a little grocery shopping, got gasoline...bought a part of my Iphone to connect to a battery powered speaker thru wire with 3.5mm round connector like headphones would have the tiny headphones....and I bought a salad to go with my dinner...I had a 1lb T-bone with a big baked tator from potato bag going into microwave and a small corn on cob with butter on both and on the steak too and after those were gone I finished the steak....Lunch was restaurant bought 16in supreme pizza with no green peppers.....
I had my PRG tonight and now have an action plan....and some action to follow too....in regards to paying this months bills differently than my thinking how to do it....
I should have a check sent overnight air to me tomorrow....from Fedex...I will be at the auto auction....so I have to count on neighbor coming over to grab that if it arrives while I am away from home....

Tomorrow is National Relaxation Day but seeing how we already had a Moment of Zen this week and today happens to be a Friday, how about some relaxation jokes instead?! Namaste... enjoy! Happy Friday!

If you only know one thing about me, it should be _____________________.

Keep on keeping on!
Today for me, will be another 24 hour enjoying day. Just finished my breakfast, so different here in Spain, as yours in EEUU. but full of vitamins. Big toast of bread with tomato and olive oil, and Natural orange juice with honey, and natural spices, as well as a big mug of coffee with out sugar. And now in 30 minutes will go for my sports routine.
So thanks again, for sharing, Sober life is the greatest gift I had in my life, and guess than yours too
glad you pointed her to AA and the non profit recovery center....we have them everywhere it seems now....people have decided alcohol is their biggest problem and that is when the seed of AA starts to grow into sobriety perhaps....
