I'm sitting in a pretentious little cafe. ...the llama karma. ...enjoying an excellent but expensive coffee....been on the road for two hours with two to go
today is my lovely Pat's funeral and also the fourteenth aniversary of my dad's passing.
I'm gonna call off at mum's to make her a cuppa and get dhaved and changed before meeting up with my sponsor to go to the funeral.
Feeling calm and settled if a bit reflective.

Sounds like a well planned day Bill. Hope you discuss memories with Pat and nod and smile and express your gratitudes again. Thoughts and blessings from my own home. (((hugs)))
A long, long day. Went to Pat's funeral. There was way over 150 in attendance. Good to see such a big turnout for this woman and her family. It was emotional and moving. Met a lot of people I hadn't seen in a long while at yhe tea. Drove backto mum's that evening but went to a wee meeting first near there.
just six of us and a safe place to release the tears I'd held back for so long. I didn't mean to but victor, helen, john, jerry and liz took one look at me as I came in, were on their feet for a big old hug. Liz is picking me up tonight to go to another meeting. Meeting victor on Sunday. Thank God, as you understand him, for this fellowship.
I'm glad to be here and grateful to be sober.
