Waking Up
Permalink  
 


Today I woke up to reality- realization of the changes in my life already.I am now able to get up in time and report for office in a far more cheery mood than ever.Come to think of, the morning after alcohol grumpiness and guilt still haunt me.And nothing I would eat or drink  could convince my body that I am OK.NOW I feel healthier. I am only trying to check my stress level which pushes me sometimes to the extemes.I am taking it one day at a time and especially 'not try controlling' circumstances which are beyond my control anyways. That makes me feel relaxed, and take it easy. I have had my share of bad days lately, but today is not one of them.Thank you higher power for looking over me today.smile

Wow, Nisha, you sound great.  I'm glad to hear that you are taking good care of yourself.  I hope you have many more days like today.

What a cheerful message Nisha. Truly uplifting. I needed that today. I've got a difficult customer on my hands and a few other issues that are pushing my serenity reserves to the limit. I'm going to another meeting tonight,
two nights in a row (whoo hoo!)

Hey Nisha,
You would be in AA heaven if you lived in my town. We must have alot of drunks here...Just curious and I counted how many meetings are available here in ONE day....On fridays, there are 48 meetings available from 7am-12M!!!! The meeting I go to on Fri nites usually has 60+ people at it!!! That means I could hit at least 6 meetings in one day! Havent done that but have hit 3 in one day! Move to Ohio girl!!!! heehee

Nisha, it's about the same here. probably 1000 meetings per week between St. Pete and Clearwater, and another 500 in Tampa. Deffinately no excuse for not getting to a meeting in a metro area.

Nisha, you just need to move to the USA, we'll adopt you.

I am tizzy with the thoughts of so many meetings in one day....So what's the quickest way to reach AA heaven which has seems to have branches all over US- Die or write to Obama/Hillary(for a quick transfer..)Lol....

But jokes apart,what I wouldn't do to have these kind of numbers(and members) in neighbourhood..U guys are really lucky to have the options.Enjoy, and keep passing the spoils, hehe...
