The 12 and 12


24 Hours a Day


In Michigan, we tend to do things different.


We, in Michigan, have small table discussion meetings


We, Michiganders, don’t usually have cakes at sobriety anniversaries


Apparently, we in Michigan, don’t go to International Conferences, more on this later.

- “Barefoot meeting†is a term used to describe a meeting where discussion is not focused on a particular topic; each member who shares chooses what he or she wishes to discuss.

We have calls
