Goodmorning all...

I'm having another cup of tea, and then I'll get busy. I haven't left town. Just enjoyed my granddaughter yesterday. My daughter picked her up last night.


 She had a talk with her Dad, he had cleaned himself up yesterday ,spent the day with his sponsor. Today he and his sponsor are going to a lake to an AA campout, it's 45 miles from where we live. He is trying to dry out , this will be good for him. I had planned on going but decided to stay home and go to the 75 miles of garage sales our area is having today.Is there anything I need to keep my eyes open for,send me your wish lists and I'll try to get you a bargain....Of course you have to come see me to pick it up.


I am reading "Staying Sober" again, the part to the family. You know , how unresonable , controlling, demanding we can become.I have about worn that book out.Today I will let go and let God, I will stay sober and I will be grateful.


What's everyones plans for the weekend. Phil, what are you doing?


(((Hugs)))

Hey Gammy!!  Been thinking a lot about you lately and the challenges that you have had to face on a daily basis.


Im not into the religious stuff--but I know that there is a Spiritual God, as I understand Him, and Ive learned that praying does work.


Its really uplifting to hear some positive--re your husband. Gads!! I hope he gets this thing, and keeps it.


It makes the living WITH a whole lot easier:)


Anyway-Hang tough Gal!! Im praying for each of you.  lottsa love   Phil

And a happy good morning to you!!!


Thats really great new Gammy!!! I'll keep praying!!!


I've been working so much!!! i finally have a day off tomorrow and finally get 2 off together next week..i'm really looking forward to it!!! So needless to say I'm pretty tired and worn out. I started a little excercise program this week...walks everyday and such..so i'm sore too!!! But determnined


I FINALLY got a sponsor!!!!!!!!!! Yeah for Wendy!!!!!


We are meeting for coffee sunday, i'm so looking forward to that...peaople have asked me how i've gotten this far in working my steps without a sponsopr..well i did up to step 5 in treatment..so i wasn't really alone in them.


I did some service work this week for my home group...feel really good about that


I've been reading a whole lot more of my BB since i received my gift in the mail..


I also started an outpatient circle check at the treatment center i went to, every thursday..we just discuss our week and set a goal for the next week. My goal this week is to add 2 more meetings to my schedule.


My sponsor told me to call any time...day or night..i'm grateful but i really think i've lost my desire..coming up on my 1st birthday, so i don't see myself making any middle of the night calls...i pray not anyways!!! But i really hope she can help me with my stepwork. So i hope not calling her everyday doesn't make her think i don't need her.


I've never had a sponsor so this is new territory for me.


I'd so love to go garage sailing with you!!!


If you happen to find a cup of serenity...think of me!!! half full, half empty, no matter


I've not heard of the book you talk of Gammy...


I have a copy of living Sober..maybe it's similar??


have a beautiful week end my friends


Stay safe and smilin'


\\// and luv , Wendy

Mornin Gammy,


I'm sorry your time with your little one is over for a bit...it was lovely hearing about your time together. I guess you will miss her today. My grandparents provided my best childhood memories, and those memories are still motivating today. 


I am putting my two to work this weekend...turning the kitchen upside down...cleaning cupboards, shelves etc. and then out to begin digging a new pond... they began rolling their eyes at me last night.


Glad to hear the ol' boy is in AA. Remember he too, was just a little tyke once. It is hard to locate the beginning of our pain...I believe those that struggle the most...in and out, in and out...are simply lost in their pain. It is hard to negotiate deep pain...hard to let yourself blame, only to let then find you have to let go of that blame. It is all a very difficult process. Maybe guys struggle more with it? The emotional side? Making peace with the little kids inside us all...who just wants to run away, hide from the world, or throw tanties to get what we want...it is tricky stuff. It can and does happen everyday. My thoughts are with him...


And you - as you traipse through the garage sales, spotting bargains and locating treasures. I hope you find a whole heap of fun Gammy.


All the best,


Nic

Hi all...


It's evening now...thought I'd say hi to everyone. Haven't been posting much the last couple of days...went to see my sponsor. She's getting married at the end of the month so we gave her a "chocolate and lingerie" shower. I stayed over to visit with her and now I'm working on a 4th step on some stuff. Oh well, it was overdue!!!Action action action... Why do I fight when I know what I need to do???And will feel so much better once I'm done?


Just sittin here ponderin my life tonight...


Love, cheri
