IF THE ONLY PRAYER YOU SAID IN YOUR LIFE WAS "THANK YOU", THAT WOULD SUFFICE. ~Meister Eckhart

Sunday, Eleventh of March

One way to tell how well you are practicing the principles in all your affairs is to notice how you treat people who can be of no service to you. ~Pocket Sponsor
Today I am grateful...
  • that Mary (my landlord) liked the baby shower present, see the painting below
  • for the beautiful weather yesterday evening
  • that I got to go to two meetings with Matt and have lunch together
  • that Chuck, the mechanic, was able to repair the car in one day yesterday. It was the second time it was in the shop last week.
  • that I had the monies to make the repairs
  • for proof that God could and would if he were sought
  • that I shifted my regular Saturday morning meeting to one where I feel more comfortable
  • that I got all the clocks reset for daylight savings time which was introduced by Benjamin Franklin
When I am tempted to think these clean and sober people are full of shit, let me remember that they're full of clean and sober shit. ~Pocket Sponsor

Thanks to MC, now I know what's daylight savings and she also told me that you turn back the time in Spring!

'Nice' painting and 'nice' Mary for liking it.

Oops! I'm so sorry, Scott W. Wrong info (actually I forgot, can't make head or tail between Spring and Fall). I was suppose to write, you will get back your time in the Fall!

Hi Scott, I'm sorry for being off-topic but I am absolutely in crisis right now over my alcoholism.

If anyone is willing to email me, I would love the support. Really.
