Interesting. What didn't you like about the virtual meetings?
It seemed very impersonal and everyone was typing in the chats the whole time , even while people were telling their very personal shares.

Hello Erica! I totally understand the virtual meetings- I got sober last July when the pandemic hit and everything was closed. When I started, I went to a bunch of woman's meetings and big book meetings. Being in person helped alot, especially when I stayed after and was able to talk to others 1:1. There's a great app called 'Meeting Guide' that lists all the meetings in your area. Another thing I did, and still do today, is treat myself to a massage, getting my nails or hair done. You got this!

Gotcha. That can be frustrating. If that specific meeting isn't your cup of tea, you can always try another.
Did you survive Day 2 without a drink?
How’s your day going so far? You got this! It’s all in the mind. Exercise, eating healthy and working a program is a must to keep us sober and busy.

Erica, you’re welcome. I cried yesterday in the shower. Even after 606 days I still cry from time to time. I believe crying is part of the healing process. I’m no longer afraid to cry.
Keep up the good work! Life gets easier each day. I read chapters 4&5 last night in the AA big book. It was beautiful to read with such clarity. Time for me to get on my steps….
Have a wonderful day filled with love and peace within
