life safari #5 1/2

Good Evening.

What a wonderful day and evening.
I mowed the front yard early. Made it to the Center, Lady A was there as she had committed to being. Attended a powerful 11:30 AA meeting. Ran an errand and 4 of us had lunch together.

Got Lady A's key to her apartment, came to my house and fed Precious. She took to Lady A fast and without hesitation. Very un-Precious-like ! Ran some more errands, had a spot 'a tea with Boston and Jack. Then several of us attended a dynamic and well told AA story by Mike.

Lady A was escorted home by SW and hopefully, she will get a good night's sleep and rest. I am worn out, she must be as well. She had a very emotional day.

It was my pleasure to accompany Lady A today. It was wonderful to reach out to someone who needed support. Haven't done that in a long time (the 12 step variety of support).

Actually, as I told SW tonight, Blogging has made a complete improvement in my socialization.
I seem to have more confidence in myself, I am eager to look for opportunities to serve in AA and my fellows. I have had nothing byt positive support and loving help in that endeavor and it has given me a sense of myself. The softer more caring and secure side of myself. Thank you all.

I still have some demons, don't we all. I have shared things on a deeper level with people lately. I am listening to others more and better because I'm venting and sharing in the Blogg venue.

I get to communicate here anytime I choose so am better able and willing to listen to others.

I am Grateful...
to have had a full day and getting aquainted with Lady A and seeing the progress and maturity of Boston. She's come a long way. You go girl !!!
to be interested in Scott's wonderful artistic talent. What a swell guy. If you have not looked at his body of work, I highly recommend seeking it out.
For the Lambda Board members and others for all their selfless work decorating the cars for the parade. I hope they all had fun. And what a beautiful red Crossfire Dave got to drive.

Thanks for spending time with Lady A. I sure hope she can stick close to the winners and not stray again.
(and the Parade was fabulous, dear!)
