Just got back from an AA camping retreat. It was so awesome; anyone else do any AA or recovery retreats, conferences, or other types of activities? Any YPAA peeps?

OP where do you live that you did a camping retreat? I have honestly never heard of any happening in my area but I would love to go to something like that. I would even love to go to some type of larger conference. Those are things that are right up my alley but I live in a small town so we probably don't have any.

Are you M or F? I’m up in Park City and there’s a men’s meeting on Thursday nights at 7pm that tons of SLC guys come to (and is also the meeting that does the annual campout). It’s actually my home group, and while intimidating at first, it’s one of the best meetings I’ve ever been to.

Just wanted to post an update. 68 weeks ago I posted about my drinking problems. It was bad. It’s been 8 months now without a single drink. I still can’t believe it. I still miss drinking. I’ve sat with coworkers and watched them drink. It’s not nearly as fun, but I am so thankful each morning I can hold my head up high. Will I drink again? I only said I would quit for 60 days. Can I have a beer? Some wine? A fine bourbon? I sometimes crave it. I guess there is the answer! You can all do this!

I left my last job because I didn't appreciate the culture (B4). However, it was probably because I was a terrible employee. However, I do find that my clients love me 10x more than my consulting colleagues. I joined a smaller firm to cover up the problem.

I drink during the day. I know it's the main reason for my ability to be a productive employee. Anyone else deal with this? I'm trying to control it through moderation management, Dharma meetings, therapy, and white knuckling.
