Day 17 and 18 done, even though I didn’t want to!
Life is as tedious as twice-told tale, vexing the dull ear of a drowsy man.

Skipped a couple, did a couple… I’m calling it caught up!

Day 19 done, and that leaves me the rest day tomorrow to get caught up. I would feel smugly righteous, but I keep hearing my high school history teacher counseling me “You know, Dan, you can’t play catch-up your whole life.”
Maybe, though, the calendar and its attendant anxieties is just a man-made construct that we choose to believe is somehow real. The real things are the eternal things, and it is through sobriety and grace that I can claim those. And of course, this is an ancient idea… (Disclaimer, I am not a religious man, but I do see truth in lots of places).
For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

Day 20 and 21 done. This challenge, like sobriety, is about changing my doing and changing my thinking about my doing. We read the appendix on the meaning of the term “spiritual experience” in our AA meeting tonight.
Most emphatically we wish to say that any alcoholic capable of honestly facing their problems in the light of our experience can recover, provided they do not close their mind to all spiritual concepts. They can only be defeated by an attitude of intolerance or belligerent denial.

I’ll jump back in and join you guys for the April challenge 
maybe I should find out what it will be first
