What a lovely breath of fresh, cool air the past two days !
Today, I am Grateful and Thankful...
for another day of life
to be sober, clean, and smoke free
for being off work today. It's Catechism night and I'm able to get back to my routine because,
Ruth - the woman working to fill Astere's shift, is all about work, has caught on fast and is very customer oriented ! What a Blessing !!! And, she isn't on a cell phone her entire shift !
Thank you Ruth. I am happy to work with you.
to be invited to have Thanksgiving lunch with my sister and her husband
that I do not suffer from Bi-Polar Disorder. I have great empathy for those who do
for God's Grace in my life
Precious and her company
my friends and family
that it is almost Birthday Night - I'm getting nervous already. I do not enjoy going up in front of all those people. What to say ?
that the weather is supposed to get warmer for the weekend and our Retreat at Surfside
Thank YOU

Good morning everyone !!
It is a great day to be alive, sober, clean and smoke-free.
the wind is up and the air cooler. the front is coming in.
I am Grateful and Thankful for/that...
the cooler weather
the beautiful red hibiscus in bloom in my atrium
Lee G. in my life today
All of my friends and Familia
I am learning to be more patient and kind

the changes that I have made of late
I am happier than I have ever been in my life !! It just gets better from here.
the gift of my Faith - it grows more every day because I am nurturing and feeding it
that I now have a Religion that I enjoy and can not wait until Sunday to go in and worship with the rest of the Church
Father John, Father Bill and Father English
Frank, my Sponsor. I respect and honor his knowledge and time helping me to grow
Thank you Frank
Mike, you too !

Precious and I are together and well

Happy Monday ! It is good to be on a time cycle that suits my internal clock.
I hear we are going to have a cold front move in this week, I am thrilled !
I am pleased as to how I conducted my self yesterday
I was able for the first time in my life to totally enjoy sharing my massive bucket of popcorn at the movie ! I shared with folks sitting on both sides of me. I had never met the Priests to my right. I now know twin brothers who became Episcopal Priests, had not contact with one another for some time and both chose (unknown to the other) to convert to Catholicism. I met some of Mike's family and friends. What an enjoyable day and evening I had Sunday.
I am Grateful and Thankful...
for my life as a woman of Faith
for my life as a "baby" Catholic
for Don K and his wonderful gifts of himself and articles and books that interest me
for the members at the board meeting yesterday
A few barbs were thrown, I, unfortunately let my old ways show a couple of times. But, other than the room being unlivably hot, no one needed medical treatment (teehee)
God's Grace
thank YOU
