Just popping in to say hello and hoping all is well in online Sobriety Land.
Things are good here, still sober, still trudging the road to Happy Destiny and living life one day at a time. Nothing is new right now, and as an alcoholic with a a natural averson to change..... 'tis a welcome thing. (Now watch, it will change since I wrote that... LOL)
Wondering what you all have planned for the summer. Me, I intend to double up on my walking the dog, for her sake AND mine. Put on a few lbs. this winter, and with the new desk-oriented position, so time to get back into those skinny jeans ASAP!!! Already tried that "Eat chocolate every single day" diet for about a month, and didn't work out too well. LOL
If you are new out there, stick around. Before you know it, you will both LOVE and LIKE yourself as well. You will be able to be STILL in your own place of residence and completely at peace. Guilt will be far far behind you. Gratitude and Serenity will be yours to have anytime, if you just reach out for it. You will wish you had more TIME in your busy life to BE STILL and enjoy the moment. Keep Coming Back, and Stay While You're Here!!!!! Stop and smell the roses. Know that God danced the day you were born!!!!!
Love, Joni

Lani too????? LOL Must be that overworked nurses have to divide up our time into teeny weeny increments, regarding anything other than WORK!! Ugh...
Seriously, I can no longer BEAR to get on the computer at home that much any more, as I stare at them all day long. But I just can't stay away from MIP for too long. I see things are still moving and happening around here, that's great.
Have you been working on your mountain home, Dean? How are the new diggs in FL coming along?

The excitment of a new position at work is wearing off unfortunately and Im feeling tired! But miss all of you and will make a better attempt to be a part of all this wonderful MIP stuff!!!!!
Love ya's
