When one alcoholic/addict shares with another alcoholic/addict

[MajestyJo]

Yep, a day at a time...you stick around and great things will happen for you!

And the humour truly isn't self depreciating--far from it! I've learned to not take life or myself too darn seriously. When your worth and value isn't in your 'doings' but in your 'beings'......as a child of G-d, you don't get to depreciate the value no matter where your feet have landed....G-d loves ya in spite of it all, 'doesn't make junk' and has a purpose and a lesson in everything.

So......

You know you're in recovery when.....

**you find yourself in the recovery section of Barnes and Noble with your cuppa Starbucks coffee, looking for yet another daily reading book!

**you don't have to ask what you'll be doing this weekend cuz you know exactly which meeting you'll be going to and which pigeon you'll be working with.

**you stomp your foot, cross your arms and admit that you're tantrumming...and if folks will just wait, you'll be done shortly.. (yep..LOL...I still do this one)

**you find yourself chanting slogans and getting through moments that you used to drink over.

**you find yourself finishing the quotes from the Big Book that your sponsor starts and going "yeah, yeah, yeah...I KNOW....I AM my own problem....LOL"

Being able to take the words off the page and applying them to my life.
