LAST WEEKEND: 1ST PLACE

Since I have written so much about our showdog, Gaybe (rhymes with maybe), I thought I should at least announce that last weekend in Pueblo, CO he won two champion points and placed first in two classes. It was so odd that the day before hubby and I were considering not showing anymore since he had not done well on that day.  We did remind ourselves that we had made a commitment to the breeder to show both days and so we returned on Sunday and then the miracle occurred. (Only 13 more points to full Champ status.)

It reminded me of the phrase: "Don't leave before the miracle occurs." If you think AA is not working for you, be patient. After all, it took a long time to get you in the room. Give it some time to keep you there with a miracle in your pocket. We may not give out ribbons or trophies, but you will have something far more precious. It is called happiness, a new freedom and the real joy of living. Here's to all the potential champions in the program.  Love ya!

Congratulations on the showing, both of Gaybe, and Sobriety.

Truly it's nice to relate our everyday activities, which might be totally unrelated to AA...relate them to our sobriety, found in AA, where God brought us.

Love and PEACE...and keep winning with Gaybe AND AA

Nice message. Perhaps we will both be champion snow shovelers today?

That is great. I hope that he continues to do well. I hope to not leave before the miracle happens either.
