I DID need that reminder today. Jane; thanks! (Today is my 17th AA anniversary, and I'm still not great at "practicing what I preach" -- thanks for the kind nudge.)

Thank you for a gift I did not realize I needed. I was wielding the bat and losing patience with myself. Your words have helped me many times. Sending you gratitude from someone struggling with acceptance.

I loved the weather when I lived in Seattle, but I may not be entirely well adjusted.

Turn on a lamp, read a book, make it cozy!

Checking in from Seattle, dark and rainy today. I try not to let the darkness outside change the way I feel inside. It’s not always easy, but I try to use the tools of the program to ease the discomfort. In respect for the way I feel, the AA principles works for me SLOWLY what alcohol did for me quickly.

One of the most important things I’ve learned in 10 years is that my brain still leads me to wrong conclusions sometimes. I think T.B.D. wrote about this last week.
