Hi Rick    Dont think there has ever been a night chat as we have the room for our regular chats so much then.    Cheri has been running the day chat until of late ((has problems right now))) so when she comes back , she will help out.
 Yes You may post and see who is interested ect.......hugs annie

Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays are all fine with me, but I live in the Moutain time zone so I would have to make the time a little later. Would that be OK ? I have never ran a chat before, or opened one. I might need someone to show me.
 
Rick I do not mind doing the day one, What ever you and Annie decide is fine with me.

Click on Wakan Chat room #1 on the sidebar.
 
A page will come up with a link to the chat room.  Click on that.  The link to the chatroom is on the very top of the page.  Also look at the chatroom guidelines, below this link.
 
The next page will have a few things on it, but in the upper left hand corner it says chat, click on that.
 
When the new page comes up, type in the name you joined the group with, not your name or another name.
 
Then click on the chat button on the right hand side.
 
That should take you to the chat room.  Once there, make sure your curser is in the dialog box on the bottom of the page.  Then hit the ENTER KEY ON YOUR KEYBOARD!!!   There is not the word enter anywhere on the chat room.  REMEMBER, IT'S ENTER ON YOUR KEYBOARD!!!

 This sounds good ..both of you...and all you have to do is look at the above message ..it tells you how to get into chat room.
 
To open any chat is the same...post "Recovery chat open" on main message board....then go there and wait for them to come in. Its best to wait a bit before you get into recovery conversation, just in case some come in a bit late. Then just do it like you have seen it done when you were in a group before.
 
Let me know the times so I can post it on side bar....ok     Hugs annie

That sounds good to me 10 am my time. That way I have my kids off to school, and I am free at that time.
 
Rick I will put my info in the contact list and you can email me. Do you want to start Friday, kind of get the word out so people know ?
 
I am a recovering Meth addict, so I know the twelve steps,AA, NA. I have done both.
 
You can email me directly and I will answer any question you have, I will put my contact info in the area.

You are welcome to email me

Would 12 noon eastern time be ok on Monday, Wednesday, and Fridays. Rick said he would be able to attend those times also, and they are perfect for me.
