   I know what you mean about working and not getting to any meetings.  I 
haven't gotten home from work in time to get to my regular Mon nite one.  By 
th
time I get home I just want to eat something, watch tv for a bit, and get to 
bed.  I haven't been working on my writing, or keeping up with computer 
learnin
either.
   This isn't good tho'.  I went Mon nite to a meeting and they couldn't open 
the church...so we ended up having coffee together instead and talking.  I 
got 
some things out of my system that needed talking about.  Getting to the 
meeting
is important and I miss them.
   Plus..the fact that I'm tired out so much of the time isn't good either.  
Th
need to be around people that understand what happens is not met and the 
suppor
that comes from a group of people that are right there is a valuable 'tool' 
tha
each of us need.
   The support here is also VERY important.  When we can't do a meeting we 
can 
find help here.  But it should be used as an adjunct, not instead of.  I've 
bee
lax on this.
     I'm having enough problems with one job and overtime, how do you handle 
2?
You must be very tired out a lot too.  Hope you're doing ok with it.  I got 
scared a couple times when I felt like a martini was the answer.  I could 
taste
it.  This isn't good.  Not at all. 
   Keep well.  And keep up the good work.  Having an anniversary...I call it 
birthday...is an important stepping stone.  One more 'mile' you've walked.
