Happy Saturday !
Sorry I didn't see you this morning dAAve, this morning we had only one Mass time and it was at 9:30. Also, it is a Holy Day of Obligation. I'll see you soon.
I am Grateful and Thankful for/that...
I went to visit a friend in the hospital after church this morning
it's the weekend !!
this next week and weekend I am going to be slammed with activities
It's all Christmas and food activities (cool)
to be sober, clean and smoke-free still
I'm looking forward to a relaxing evening in front of the tv
Precious is here with me and fills me with much joy
this wonderful coffee and honey and milk
the great Wholefoods ciabatta bread I just heated up with butter and soup
God's Grace
the gift of Faith
thank YOU

Good morning. Had a very hard time going to bed last night.
I have so much going on in my head - good memories, bad memories.
I think I am in a rut right now.
I need to get up early in the morning, go to the 8:30 am meeting then to visit a friend in St. Joseph's Hosp. That sounds like a sound plan. That's what I will do whether I do anything else tomorrow !!
I am Grateful and Thankful for/that...
I have a solid plan for tomorrow
the knowledge that I must do something different to get out of my rut and depression
this time of year is hard for me but I don't have to drink or smoke over it
I must also not EAT over it as well !
God's Grace
Precious and her little sweet Catsonality - she's sooooo the Bomb to live with and share life with !
Thank YOU

Wow, what a learning experience tonight at Catechism class !
If tears mean "healing", I'm REALLY healing.
It was spelled out very simply (and sweetly I must add) that my conception was wrong. It was an "AHAW moment." Perhaps now I can alter some behaviors that have had me pinned down (emotionally) tightly.
Tonight, I am Grateful and Thankful for/that...
I rented and watched Rein Over Me last night and got pretty depressed because I related to the emotional devastation caused by death of loved ones
I also learned tonight that I am trying to "save" myself - I have very harsh/strict standards
It is not my job. I can not even do that job. That is God's Work. Actually, that work was done centuries ago at Calvary
As a friend stated: Surely a drop of blood was shed for you, K
thank you E
My heart goes out for one of our Team Leaders of the class - Barbara, I love you and will come to see you very soon.
Get Well

I am Grateful and Thankful...
that Scott and Pat are doing better now
for the fact that I can relax and not rush around town - I am able today to give myself permission to not do some things
for this fantastic weather lately (here)
that, although I grow weary of showering every day, I must go on and do it again today
I get more awake during my shower
the warm/hot water feels very good
I guess what I really grow weary of the the drying off-I think it is a habit worth repeating however, I don't like to have on wet clothes
God's Grace
tomorrow is Thursday - I'm sleepy !!!!!

Oh my, what a fast three days it has been ! The time seems as though it has just evaporated.
I am Grateful and Thankful...
to have peace and no chaos again
for this cold snap we've had the past few days - MORE !!!!
that after a couple of days of ragging on my co-worker Ruth, I realized what my problem was and corrected it. Living and verbal amends - I had a much better, more joyous day today
God's Grace
Get behind thee, Satan !!! And, stay there !!!
Prayer and Meditation
not having to get up early the past two mornings, sleeping in, getting my prayer and meditations done and having to rush on to work - something different for a change
it's an early morning in the morning
that I will get to the noon meeting tomorrow
that after tomorrow, I'm off on Thursday
RCIA is Thursday
to be clean, sober and smoke-free another day
thank YOU
