When I did open my eyes, it was because I had to. And the man who showed me the truth was a fellow sufferer and a layman. Through him,I saw at last, and I stepped from the abyss to solid ground, knowing at once that my feet were on the broad highway if I chose to walk. ~Bill W

Today I am grateful...
- that I did get to see the dentist. But she said she was not able to save the tooth, so I have to arrange for the extraction. I have a lot invested in that tooth--root canal, crown, must have over $2500 tied up there. And OSHA won't let me keep it!
- that my mind feels alert today
- that I have a good feeling about how today will turn out
- for iced coffee with heavy whipping cream (0 carbs) and Sweet'n Low
- that today I get it a lot more than I got it in my drunk life
I'll be pleased today that I can remember the past without living in it. I am free from the old hurts and problems that would keep me from directing all of my energies and attention to what I am doing here and now. ~Walk in Dry Places

I'm sorry to hear about your tooth but congrats on doing somethin good for yourself.
I LOVE that first quote from Bill.
Walk on!
OSHA--Funny name for a dentist. She won't let you keep that tooth?
Maybe for Christmas?
That is my favorite drink (ice coffee with whipped cream). Yummy
I would rather go thru labor than go to the dentist. Good luck.
One of the greatest gifts I've been given is that I can remember the past and feel as if it all happened to someone else. Thanks for the quote.

OSHA has a say in what teeth you get to keep?
maybe she'll give you the tooth to keep in a jar above your fireplace?
Hope that the tooth gets taken care of. Ouch!
