August 30th entry from beyond belief:
You can live a perfectly normal life if you accept that your life will never be perfectly normal.
Author unknown.
Today marks 35 years of continuous sobriety for me.
It boggles my mind, to tell you the truth, because I remember what a mess I was and how I barely got through day one.
It took three AA meetings just to get through that day, but it gave me hope the following day that I could do it again.
And I did.
And then I did it again.
And at a certain point, it got easier.
A day at a time, the years have taken care of themselves.
I'm going to go pinch myself now.

So, “the fix is in,” corruption’s complete
Fairness & justice are now bleeding out
Efficiency’s coup has stolen man’s seat
For gross power our decency’s lost clout

Thanks for all the congrats. Recovery works if you work it.

Information overload. However, I did get to ask how to check for circulation issues in people of color, as it wasn't covered in the material. The answer is to check the eyelids and inside of the mouth.
They've also started covering treatment for opioid poisoning, which I'm thrilled about.
Thinking of my late buddy Chewy (Dave) who OD'd back around 2016. And the rest of my friends who have passed. Recovery is both wonderful and tragic. #RecoveryPosse #SoberLife #ODAAT

Welcome back! Glad you are ok and hopefully armed with new knowledge!
It isn't easy, but it is worth it - hang in there #odaat

@MammalAmongMammals I had stairs in my home, no idea how I never fell down them.
I hope your friend recovers soon - in both ways.
Thanks for sharing, good reminder, there but for the grace of god....
