I have to say that I am not proud of the fact that I have ducked out of Alanon a lot lately. My recovery is at a standstill. No growth but hanging in there. I know how much I miss you all. I am not in real bad shape but I need some really good meetings. We have currently no meetings in our small town. Hardly anyone is interested or maybe we aren't representing the program the way it should be. From my perspective is just this: when they are ready, they will come. That's how I feel these days.
Hey Kathleen - good to see you here and back! Any program effort is better than no effort at all - that's been helpful for me!!! I tend to be an all/nothing person and have worked on moderation for years. So - when I think I am slacking, I do what I can and work back into what works well for me/my schedule!
(((Hugs)))
