Sticking Together

I recently joined  a new home group called the “Stick Together” group.  I think it is one of the best decisions I have made in some time.  The group shows up everywhere their members are sharing and individuals seem to take an active role in each other’s lives – something I have not witnessed or felt in some time.

Tonight I am going to a local detox to support members that bring a commitment there.  I find myself drawn to the fellowship that I remember form the early days and seem to be craving lately.  I had recently been attending a meeting that felt as though it was slowly dying.  Every time I was there, I felt like I aged a few years.  I am glad that is over.  Whether or not it was me, the group or both (the latter being the likely), I decided to heed my sponsor’s advice and get away from it.  Interestingly. the meeting folded right after I announced I would no longer be attending.  I guess I am not the only one who thought it wasn’t working.

Anyway, I am so happy I joined this very active group.  I can already detect a difference in my attitude for the better.

I thank God for the fellowship that was instrumental in saving my life and continues to be so on a daily basis.

How about you?  Do you have a home group that you think is the best group of all?

Halloween 2011

This will be our first Halloween in the new house.  We bought tons of candy to hand out, so we will be ready for just about anything.  When we lived in Taftville, we had at least 200 show up at the door.  Of course, that neighborhood has always been big on Halloween and even holds an annual parade hosted by the local Fire Department who hands out treats to the kids.  A nice thing to do, but it sure brings the kids in! I am not sure what Romeo is going to be up to this year -- hopefully he will get dressed up (I think he is planing to be Captain America again this year, since that particular character is the order of the day in recent times).  Whatever transpires, I will, of course, post pictures! Karen is still out of work and the situation is very frustrating for her and affects us both on different levels.  Most importantly, I hate to see her suffering as a result of this accident.  At least, it seems that there is some progress being made.  ...

Suggested Links

This post is all about other places on the Web I have found that offer recovery resources worth checking out. I shall begin with a personal favorite: The Jaywalker .  This site offers all sorts of things from humorous to quite serious.  There are step guides, photos, funny things like “Rent-A-Sponsor” and links to other sites.  So please check out the Jaywalker. There are times when I can’t find the right medallion locally or need some sort of recovery-related gift or item outside of the Internet.  When this is the case, I turn to the Recovery Emporium .   I have ordered many things from them in the past with satisfaction.  Things were delivered quickly, in good shape and as ordered. If you are in Connecticut, a very valuable resource is the Area 11 Web site: www.ct-aa.org .  There you will find contact information for various committees, meeting schedules for the entire state and listings of local events by district (if somebody bothered to submit...
