Dinner and a meeting


On most Friday nights for the last couple of years, I have met with my friend Sandy for dinner and a meeting.  We missed the last two Fridays.  Tonight was Vietnamese food.  Sandy loves the pho noodles.  I had a spicy chicken curry.  Both were delicious.

We tend to show up late at the meeting.  Tonight we were a few minutes early for a change.  We read from the literature for awhile and discussed the impact of a loved one's alcohol consumption on our psyche.  It leaves a mark and takes a lot of work for some of us to get past the trauma.  For those of us that go to meetings, life is a lot better now than how it used to be.

I am grateful for my dear friend Sandy and easy access to lots of 12-step meetings.
