Thank you for the support! I really do get a lot of good information from this board and its a great escape during the day to keep my sobriety front and center. I am trying to follow the suggestions I have heard and read, and so far they are working for me. I am anxious to get into the step work very soon, my sponsor and I are beginning to go through the big book now. I know that through the steps, the promises will come true, as long as I work them to the very best that I can. Looking forward to my step meeting tonight! Thank you all and God bless!

Great for you, d_willing! Not sure if your meetings do it or not, but where I am, we pick up milestone chips everyday for a week. The first one is for you and the rest are for the other people to let them know it is working :)
BTY - I do go to a Tuesday meeting that does the chips, but i was only 29 days this Tues. and don't want to cheat myself, so waiting till next week to pick up my 1 month chip.
You got to admire the honesty too...I think you might get this thing. I love your two quotes by the way....Lots of truth in both of them. If you run into any questions....Don't be shy to ask here...This site is a good tool....I wish I had known about it when I was getting started....Damn...Did I have a lot of questions....Still do.
d_willing...I was tempted too, to pick up a chip a day b/4 my actual 6 month sobriety time because the day I actually hit that mark, is a step meeting, and not sure why, but they don't ever give out chips. I thought darn, now I have to wait an extra day...but it was alright and I felt better by waiting and that way knew I actually earned that chip. Good for you!!!! You're doing stupendously well!
