 It was a month ago today that facebook accused me of violating their precious community standards. My immediate punishment, without trial I might add, was to suspend my account for three days and on top of that to put my profile at risk of deletion for thirty days. Apparently, at 230 or 300 pm they will turn the algorithm's gaze to someone else, hopefully to one of those prostitutes who call themselves content creators or maybe to the trump-bashers, who knows who they will put under the gun this time.

Looks like we're going to 2 meetings today. The noon meeting for starters and then to a birthday meeting at gaston. I might bring cookies to that one.

 It's just another day here. I woke up at the usual time, did my readings and picked the word of the day. Shared it with all the people I share it with. It's wednesday so I uploaded  my podcast. Doesn't seem to be anything else to do today. Well, we will be attending a celebration of life this evening for the other Bernie from Hawaii, but that's not until 7 o'clock.

Yesterday was the anniversary of my first date with Nancy but today is actually the day I asked her to spend her life with me, 28 years ago. One day at a time we have been doing it.

I meet with two sponcees today and one of my sponcees who has been in treatment in Ontario comes home today so it will be good to see her.

Home group meets tonight. Birthday night is next Tuesday.

 It was 28 years ago today that Nancy and I had our first date. It wasn't supposed to be a date but looking back at it, it definitely was a date. each year we try to relive it. We might have a problem this year because of the snowstorm, but there will be other anniversaries, God willing.

 Sunday today. A fairly eventful day for me. We always go to church on Sunday morning, but today will have special significance because Nancy will be baptized and confirmed and I will be confirmed. I was baptized when I was 5 months old. If I had stayed in the church until I was 13, I would also have been confirmed. Alas, I left when I was 12, joined the local street gang and forsook all the teachings of the church. I only recently started going back to church so I am going to renew my faith and getting confirmed is part of it.

There is an AGM at the church after today's service so we plan to attend some of that. We won't be able to attend all of it because the wrap-up meeting for the midwinter roundup is also this afternoon at one and since I am the outgoing chair of that, my presence is needed.

Then, I have my usual sponsorship session at 7 and and online meeting at 8, so yes eventful sounds about right.
