Courage - Hi! Good to see you here!
This morning one of my kids had an early hockey game. This went so differently than ever before. Last year this time I was exhausted, woke up feeling hung over most days, wasn't particularly confident in my ability to deal with how I felt, and had a hard time anywhere other than inside of my own little cocoon.
Today though I felt rested and well. I enjoyed seeing the early morning fog give way to the sun. I enjoyed noticing that some of the leaves have changed color. I felt the energy and confidence to drive myself and my other son to the rink. I am incredibly grateful for the healing that's taken place. At 19 months sober I'm still a newbie!
