Packed my bags, and Im on my way !


This packing has been a constant source of anxiety. Im having to get things sorted within 46 kgs.
anything more than that and the  !@#$%&*  airline amkes a killing on me; 50 us for each kg extra.
I dont want to be robbed, so Ive had to put in a lot of thought and physical effort  in order to get around that.
Funny thing is thatin this 10 rom, 200 year old Victorian mansion, others are moving too, so Im not the only one.
But Ive had to keep my NA membership secret from them, why do they need to know ?
I also had to keep my Hep.c status secret. Prejudices exist, and though Ive cleared the virus and am not a danger, no research is available, no definite theory exisits aout what effect the revelation may have on normal folks.
The injections needs refrigeration, so i left them in the fridge. I had a good defense if someone asked,, all Id say is a friend was undergoing  treatment and in order that she dosent forget, I give her the injection each Tuesday. 
So that may sound dishonest but honesty for me is not equeal to being an idiot and analysing everythng and telling everyone everything about myself.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm,,,,,,,

Well, my trains at 4.30 tommorow and Il be in Heathrow Airport  in  London four hours later.
Then comes a long nights wait, nearly 10 hours to the take off for India.
 I plan on calling my NA buddies from there, and I have already alerted them to that and have four volunteers willing to chat me on a cold, bedless nite.

Had guys visiting me last evening and this day too, ots of good Fellowship vibes.
I went to an AA mmeting last ite and heard a great main share.
Then I had a short share and had folks roaring with me,, laugh, laugh,laugh !
Sponsee and I had dinner, and then farewell. 

Another sponsee came this morning with his one year old NA baby. His partner, the girls mom, died 5 weeks ago of alcohol overdose,leavin the kid motherless. Funny thing is the kid seems to never have put up a tantrum for mom or is it that the little one dosent know better ?
T and the ittle girl came o visit this day, and i i reached out and kissed the child on the forehead as she said 'hello". Its a delight to see this NA baby talk a bit,tryng to form words and seems to be up and running. Gave her and T a few present s and then I say goodbye to them and the other NAs that came to say goodbye.
All in all, I had to take a tough decision to move on, based on Gods will that emerged through the realities in my life. I discussed things a lot, with various stakeholders in my life, before arriving at a final decision.

Hasnt been just another town along the road, these are memories that Ill keep and cherish for a lifetime and will continue to keep these guys and gals in my recovery network.

So here I am, my bags ar packed, and Im ready to go.

God Bless all these addicts wherever they may be,
God Bless you addicts in MIP for the constant support and understanding I have recieved in my recovery !!!.
