I Never Liked the Stair Climber ....

 ... but here I am doing steps, as in the 12 Steps of AA. At this point in time, I am currently settling in on Step Four: Make a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. Basically, where I 'make a list' of those that I have wronged due to my alcoholism. It is somewhat daunting. In some ways I could generalize that would include every body that I knew during those years. So that won't work. I do not have a Sponsor, and maybe they could explain it better to me, though I am reading the AA Book, I haven't made much progress, but I am sure there is a section that covers more detail for this step. Maybe I should skip ahead a bit, as it is built on chapters of things, not a linear story. I may be on this step for awhile, which is fine so I may do it right.

I am going to my paracentesis this morning for a draining. I weighed in this morning at 252 lbs, and I am guessing about 14 lbs of that is fluid...unless I have been eating good enough I put a few back on. So I am thinking 6-7 liters for the drain today. Find out soon enough. I have an hour session with my Group Lead for the IOP this afternoon. Other than that, I am free. The Wife is 'flexed' off today, but sort of 'on-call still. Maybe we can break for a quick bite together, or even bring the Youngest out to lunch - though he usually declines going out to eat with us.

I need to contact Safelite today to see what they want to do about the PCS in my car. I have not been able to get the malfunction warning off still. I spoke to a Post member last night that works in the repairs for a dealership, and even though he doesn't do this kind of work, but based on what I told him about the situation and what I have tried, he suggest taking it to the dealer for them to re-calibrate the system. Just hooking it up to the computer though is about $150 estimated, plus if they do any work. So I am going to reach out to Safelite to see if they are going to  fix it for me, or give me money to go the dealer. I do have an appointment later this month for a recall issue, maybe I could get them to squeeze in this calibration as well....

Welp, I should close this up for the day. I need to leave in about 30 minutes for the Para.
