Picnic Table Society
Recovery; in a funny, sarcastic, engaging and sometimes serious way. Joe, Erin and Jeff share their very opinionated views on all things recovery (and some not). Join us every Tuesday. Engage yourself in your own recovery. Live life to the fullest. And always remember Rule 62 "don't take yourself so damn seriously"
I think today we just talked about being grown ups, it's a lot of work.
