No spoiler here, but my wife and I just watched Black Klansman.

We enjoyed it very much. Maybe you will too.

My $.02 about the Oscar nominations.

I saw that a Netflix original movie called "The Ballad of Buster Scruggs" was nominated for a few minor awards.

I watched it when it was first released onto Netflix. It was, as Coen Brothers movies always are, a well made or constructed movie, but I HATED it!

My 2 cents, and quite possibly over priced at that.

Today I observe, but not celebrate a special anniversary.

As of today, January 14, 2019, I have been sober for 29 years.

If you're actively abusing substances, the most important day of your recovery is today. The only difference between you and I is that I have a whole bunch of one day at a times under my belt. If I go out and get drunk tomorrow, than I'm back to zero.

If you're afraid of entering into recovery though, please believe that you CAN get here from there.

Hang in there, and thank you for reading.

RESIST!
