No drinking for me and the hubby today or tonight. Before recovery and then since I have been in recovery, I have heard many people say, we are staying in tonight as it is amateur night. This means that people will be out who don’t know how to hold their drinks and there will be accidents and it will be drunk and ugly, a fright.

After R.I.P. of 2023
When I think of new beginnings, I first have to put to rest the old man of my life, those patterns and habits that kept me together in the sometimes treacherous days I survived the year before. Some of my patterns and habits are consistently bad and some are occasionally brilliant for repairs of the collateral damage I have accrued. So, along with the facing off of my enemies from within and without, I must make appraisal as to what is valuable for me to retain. So, in my estimation, a new beginning is a difficult task. I don't like being moved or challenged or changed. Do you? Does anyone really?
