Must be hot there in Phoenix. They say the 3 best things abt. teaching are JUNE, JULY & AUGUST. So glad to hear your summer is going well. To help with my recovery I have made a few "best" friends from my alanon mtg. They too have young adult children that are addicts. We're all working our revcovery so we relate in a very emotionally supportive way and share the desire for growth. We even work the 12 steps together. I try to exercise at least 5 days a week which really helps keep my mood positive. I routinely have fun.
