I know I am behind.....

To all that love the "Food for Thought" meditations, I am sorry that I have not been able to them up in the past few days. I know I am behind in them. I haven't been able to get to my computer until late at night and I have to use it in the dark as I can't have a light on to see the words to type them. ("He" sleeps in the living room and the light would disturb "him")

I will try to get caught up the first chance I get online during the day. My work has been keeping me busy with all the end of school year stuff/trips and I haven't been sleeping really well, and my eating schedule has been way off. Like today, I was handed a field trip to take a group to this park with hiking trails. Well, I wasn't at all prepared.......I didn't have enough notice to pack a lunch let alone have anything in the morning for some kind of breakfast. So as a result my first, and only, food/meal wasn't until about 5:30 pm when I got home and could get into the kitchen to make dinner. I have been drinking water the rest of the night. It's almost been like that all this week so far and last week wasn't much better, it is so unpredictable.

Anyway, I will work on it!

Pony,
Please, what ever you do, don't start letting yourself feel overwhelmed. The stress & pressure will only make everything harder. And then the snowball effect. Just come here & share when you can & if you can't, just read & take one step at a time, doing just the one next right thing, for your own well being. YOU are what matters. Take care of YOU. {{{{{Hugs}}}}}

Thanks for understanding. I am trying to do just that.....take care of me. But I do like posting those for us here....for those who really enjoy them and get something from them and feel like I do let you down when it is not here for you to read.

(psssttt....a little secret, because of my computer challange I had been going into the archives and copy and pasting the readings from last year, but this time last year my computer had gone down and I was able to post them at all.....so....nothing to copy and paste for these dates!!)

Now that you know my secret...lol.....well.....

Anyway, yes, I have had some things besides work that I have been dealing with and I have been trying to take some time to refocus myself (once again) so I know that I have been scarce around here. I am sorry for that. I do enjoy having you all here to share with. And when I can put it into words I will do just that. I did get to a f2f meeting tonight with my daughter....she is celebrating her 5 yr. clean B/d . She is awesome! I heard lots of things in the meeting tonight that I know I needed to hear and right now it is swimming around in my head.

Anyway, thanks for being here and supporting me....lots of hugs

Pony, :bravo
That's just so wonderful to hear about your daughter having 5 yrs. clean/sober. I'm glad to hear that you went & got somethings from the meeting for yourself too. That's a double whammy for you on the positive side of things.

I was wondering how you ever had time to type those readings in. Guess, I should have thought of that, but I'm definately not computer savvy. :doh:

LOL......Yeah, I caught on to that when I realized that I had already typed these once....lol, but I do like typing them also because It gives me a second chance at re-reading them each day. I usually have time in the mornings after my first run. I would come home for a break time and type them in, but lately I have been doing alot of field trips and other work so I haven't had time. Actually I used to do them before I even left for work at about 5 am but I haven't been able to get myself up and ready in time for that......usually only have enough time to shower, dress, throw my daughter's school stuff together and run out the door.....dragging her behind me! Poor thing is still asleep.
