My lawyer says he may be able to go to court with me to get this restriction removed without charging me an additional fee. He said he will get back to me. Fingers are crossed! I definitely need this removed... I like to go out of state and frequently enough, and the court makes it difficult to get permission.

As a requirement for my DUI, I had to attend two AA meetings. I felt like a foreigner, which tells me I do not have an addiction to alcohol. It was certainly educational and kind of interesting to attend... the group dynamic I found to be a powerful glue and very supportive. Still, I felt odd and like an outsider observing.
8-9 more weeks of my course to go - we're about halfway through. It's been grueling and really hard because it's so darned long! I am still annoyed that I have to do this stupid course/rehab program, but I am taking my DUI seriously. I have been drinking water all night whenever I am at a bar and am driving home. __________________ "Twenty-five years and my life is still trying to get up that great big hill of hope for a destination" ~4 Non Blondes |

I set in on some for a week because I used to treat so many that would drink too much. I remember the structure of them, serenity prayer--->Daily Affirmation----->(Volunteer) Would read from the Bluebook------->Those having issues would talk and the group using collective wisdom would reply. Younger members would have someone with longer sober time called a sponsor. They worked on something in the Bluebook called the ten steps, I never saw what those were. The sponsors would help their charges get through them and be available as an emergency measure if someone was thinking of taking a drink. I could see how they would be helpful to some, if you felt odd, then perhaps not so much for you. It seems long but it will pass in no time it is good to have the experience. Also if you ever feel as if people don't like you, it's a good place to go, because they all say, "Glad you're here."
