31 Years Sober

Today I am 31 years sober. Got taken to Thai lunch and then to a  chip meeting. I was so emotional all day. I cried thru lunch realizing I was feeling disconnected, like a feather on the breeze. When I shared at the meeting, I could hardly talk, I was overwhelmed with emotions of gratitude for my life. They did not have a chip for my years. David being resourceful called the Serenity Shoppe and begged them to stay open so he could get me a chip today. They did that  for me and I now have a pretty one. When we got home there was a Tres Leche cake! Cake for my anniversary has not happened in many years. Then we watched a DVD of Duffy recorded about the time I got sober. It was of tombstones and the people on them who chose to drink. When I saw this originally I got hysterical and was taken from the room by an old timer. When asked if I knew why I was so affected, my answer being-no, he said I had buried the old Jeanne in there and now I was new. And, so it was. Thank you all.
