I love this message board and all of you here. I've become comfortable with asking for help, with trying to share my ES&H and with sharing what goes on in my life. The key word is "comfortable". I look at this board as more than just an extension of my f2f AA. I view all of you here as my FRIENDS, just as I do the "real" folks in my life. So, if a little humor, or a joke or pictures from someone's vacation or wedding, or a virus warning is shared here, it is welcomed by me. I love the idea that someone wants to share what's happening in their life with me. These things remind me that I'm doing OK today and there is life out there and even though I must always practice the 12 Steps of AA, I don't always have to talk about them.
There is life "out there" so let's live, ya'll
Never forget Rule 62.
Love and hugs, Doll
