In July, I'll have 20 years of sobriety. I've found that I can get
through the largest of calamaties unscathed, but it's the little
things like this which cause me the most amount of frustration and
are the hardest to deal with. Weird, ain't it? I've learned (for the
most part) to accept it and move on, and I hope you can, too.

Thanks for the reminder this morning; my daily lesson.

I hit 20 in July as well.


Congrats, fellow old timer! I hope to survive to July 8th, my actual
AA bday.


Actually, my AA bday is June 15, but I've combined it with my NA of July
20. Makes it a lot easier



All right you guys - why don't you get a "room"... to (mis)use a popular
phrase. Congrats to both of you. June 30 makes 9 years for me. It's
really been a pretty easy 9 years all things considered. It was harder to
quit smoking than it was to quit drinking.


I quit smoking for 5 years, was around some friends who were smoking, I
lit one, had it half smoked before I realized what I had done. It was a
very quick eye opener as to how insidious the disease of addiction is.
