Welcome to episode 234 of the recovery show.

Eric and I had been planning to talk about slogans today, but life intervened.

So we decided to ask how important is it

and to put first things first.

Therefore, I'm sharing with you

this open talk by Carol S. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Thank you very much. My name is Carolson. I'm a very happy joyous and free member of the

on program.

Hi Carol. I want to thank Shelly and the committee-Anon program. Hi, Carol.

I want to thank Shelly and the committee for inviting me here this weekend.

My home group is a Sunday night Benson meeting.

We meet Sunday night in Benson at 7 o'clock.

And if you're ever in Omaha, Nebraska, please come see us because you'll have a good time.

When you mention Cincinnati, Ohio at my home group,

you're going to hear Adrian Rich stories.

And if there's any members here who

knew my friend Adrian let me know. Okay I know. If you met her you know her and she broke

a lot of hearts in Nebraska when she died without warning us.

But her son, Kelly, is one of my best buddies.

And I thought of Kelly this weekend as I listen to your wonderful AA speakers,

because he has this thing he says to the men he sponsors,

is it inconvenient?
