See if you can set yourself an hour aside when you can't make a meeting and listen to those tapes in order...You can go along with your book....Like going to school and learning....From a couple masters.

It's pretty uncomfortable, and definately a constant reminder of what I need to do... bringing the urgency and desperation back!

Last time I did that ... it was not intentional ... and it took 30 minutes to realize what was wrong ... after that, I sobered up ... LOL

P.S.   There was no easy access to Mr. Happy ... and he had to go ...

RE: I put my pants on backwards.

I'm a doubting Thomas on this one also.

The flowers are nice, but I think a avitar with the backwards pants until a meeting is attended would be more motivating along with being a great exercise of humility. smile

I've never heard of a meeting you can't bring your kids to...I'm glad you're hanging in there....Listen to some speaker tapes in the meantime.

Envy of other AA areas?...They didn't have meetings when that book was written....There was only about 100 sober and they came from a lot of different towns. They would get together and fifth step eachother in people homes when they could....No sponsors either....Those steps were working before they were put on paper and had numbers added to them....And they work today.

So I can ask for people to come over and have a meeting at my house?

My kids would still disrupt that. So that wouldn't work unless they weren't here, and if they weren't here, I could be at a meeting.

I'm not going to drink - I will be getting to a meeting hopefully tonight if Zach makes it home by 7:30 - there is still a meeting at 8 - Listening to the speaker download now : ) Thanks step child - just what I needed!

 All you need is a book and two people.....It's better if you have a few more though. I've gone with people to take meetings to people house's that just got out of the hospital and things like that...Great meetings too.

I might try this except I'd be afraid my pants would fit better...not sure I'm ready for that much self-examination.
