Hi I'm Jody I'm an alcoholic. ( Hi Jody!) from the dimly lit, smokey room. Giggle. I started in the program about two decades ago. I wish to thank Bill W and Dr Bob for showing me how to work the twelve steps and live by the twelve traditions so that I can discover and be the person I am today! Excuse me I need to fill my coffee cup and with that I pass...

Niiice.

Welcome Jody! Thank god for the 3rd tradition, huh?

Keep coming back, honey. Gotta get to sleep. Had a couple of unpleasant days and gotta be brighteyed and bushy tailed for tomorrow.

See you later. I'm sure the other greeters will be by tonight or tomorrow. New kid gets to stack the chairs, btw. Good for humility and an exercise in willingness?

That's all I got for now :)

Welcome Jody, Sorry but this is a non smoking meeting. You can smoke outside but the church asks that we clean up our butts.

Join us at our Sunday meeting at 9:00 eastern in the chat rooms. There is a substance abuse room there. Hope to see you there as well. Chat takes a separate registration so plan ahead.

Hugs and a big welcome,

Charlie

So we're supposed to have a little storm here in the morning and I go to a 7am meeting every Monday..... TS or Hurricane Isaak I believe....The first time I used bad storms as an excuse to miss a meeting, my sponsor said, "Did you drink during hurricanes? Would you go to a liquor store if you were out of booze during a hurricane?"

So I don't miss many meetings... :)

Michelle, what? That little punkin head? Not yet but in about two or three years! She is my goal I have pinned on my bedroom wall by the mirror and pasted inside the cover of my Big Book. BTW they say the best a no-op can hope to look is pre-puberty. I will love to be her. Ooops, I forgot to draw in the crow's feet. Giggle. Thanks your a sweetie!

Inquiring minds want to know, I have to do some re-work and updates before it will let me register. Won't happen tonight. I will definitely get to the meeting as soon as I can get a ride! Thanks for the invitations and new-comer packet. Hug you all. Jody

      Sorry to hear you lost both your parents young. My dad died from a heart attack when I was 10. My mom died a few years ago. I never came out, truly, to either of them, about my gender identity. On one hand it is freeing, not having to deal with “what would they think or feel about me now” but on the other hand, I wish they had truly known.

      I think a lot of us did this.

      This is fantastic, We're adding a Boxer to our family sometime this evening or tomorrow. His name is Parker. We'll be crate training him as well as introducing him to two cats that have never been around a dog.   Pictures to follow later,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I still don't understand how any queer people can vote for these people.  I'll just leave it at that.

      Thanks Kathy!    Some place where the peer pressure is to dress more feminine instead of less.  Imagine that. I haven't left the house in fem clothing since an outing to a local LGBT club over 15 years ago.   She's also pointed me to some support groups so that's next as well.     And for those who noticed, yes, I committed a rather egregious grammatical error in my post, but I couldn't figure out how to edit it.  That stuff bugs me to death. Geez Louise .

      Just more of the same.  Unfortunately, I'm coming to expect it.

      Everybody doesn't feel this way. As a AMAB child (in the 50's) I don't think I questioned my body, but I was quite fascinated with girl stuff.  When puberty hit I really wished I was a girl - but alas - I was stuck living as a guy.  As an adult I had pretty bad  homophobia, which was probably internalized transphobia, but I didn't really know what transgender was at the time.  And by then I was locked into a marriage and family. I lived like that for most of my life, and convinced myself (but not my wife) that I was happy.  When we were in our 60's, the marriage fell apart.  And I believe a large part of that was me resisting my feminine self.  When I no longer had to live up to being a man, I dared to take another peek inside, and my egg cracked big time. I still don't think I was "born in the wrong body."  Maybe it just needed a little tweaking. I think our "gender" is an internal thing.   I don't regret having lived so long trying to be a guy.  But if I could have transitioned as a child it would have been awesome.

      Said it is possibly ptsd and anxiety,wants a second opinion.

      @Adrianna DanielleSeeing two different therapist for separate issues really helped me deal with the each of them on different levels. I hope this works for you too.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I seem to remember the word "deplorables" being used not long ago.  Unfortunately so often appropriate.   Hugs,   Charlize

      It was not that long ago that black people were banned from the University of Mississippi.  Schools were segregated and the same excuse of protecting the women (or girls) of old miss.  Times and many feeling have changed with time and federal intervention.  Unfortunately politicians love to separate and divide to gain power.     Hugs,   Charlize

      I agree @Birdieto just "fit in", is what drove us to therapy. I'm not fitting in just to please someone with a closed mind. At least you know who your fair weather friends are now.   Hugs,   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋
