It’s been over six weeks now…

And it’s been pretty quiet here at recovering-alcoholic.com.  I’ve thought often of blogging over the last many weeks, but haven’t made the time to sit down and do it.  As a matter of fact, I’ve consciously steered away from it – I’m probably at the computer every night for a few hours and it’s not like I haven’t had the time.  So…? Where have I been? I’ve been sober.  I haven’t been drinking.  I’ve been attending lots of meetings – I’ve decided on “ninety in ninety” with the goal of attending at least one meeting a day for 90 days.

I’m learning a lot about the program and myself in these meetings.  It’s rare that I don’t listen to the experiences of a fellow alcoholic at Step meetings and see myself or my story.  I have had a few “ah ha” moments over the last six weeks and am working my way through the steps.  I suppose it’s more appropriate to say that I have accepted Step 1:  We admitted that we were powerless over alcohol and that are lives had become unmanageable and am now thinking about the rest of the steps.

More later.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for helping me to not drink today.
