Gilmer

Wow! Cool, Ladybug! My husband works in Herndon. He used to work in Reston! We used to live in the McNair Farms apartments just south of the Clock Tower! I know you'll know about the Clock Tower!

Gilmer, you've got to be kidding -I used to live in McNair Farms apts as well!! Then I moved to Reston and lived right next to the Trader Joes. Small world huh? I don't miss the traffic and cost of living, but I do miss all of the great restaurants. I bet the Reston Towne Center is huge now??

Gilmer

It is! I get lost! I only know the way to one parking garage, which exits across from McCormick and Schmick's. I can go there. Anything else forget it--I'll never find it!

Driving back up the east coast today. Keep us in your prayers for safe travel.
It can get crazy on the roads sometimes. I'll have some pics to post once I can use a laptop instead of a tablet.

Safe travels Bob. Bet you will be tired when you get home? Hope you had a nice trip

Hope everyone else is doing well. Abby is 8 months today - can't believe it. Time really does go fast. She is pulling herself up to a stand and trying to walk now. Oh boy! Constantly on the go. I am losing weight just trying to keep up with her And she was up last night at 12:30 & 3:30 and then awake for good at 6:30 so I am still not getting much sleep Oh well, I know it's not forever right?

Soberwolf

Il keep you in my prayers bob

Happy birthday Abby

Things never to say to a recovering alcoholic;

6 Things to Never Say to a Recovering Alcoholic

I love seeing it there in the last point in back and white. "an alcoholic can never be a social drinker". I'm amazed that finally those words don't hurt like they used to and I'm OK with the impact of what that means.

Happy Days.

Stopped just South of Richmond Va.
Been driving in pouring rain for hours.
Very tired. Can't wait to get home.

Be safe, Bob. Your home will be waiting for you, no matter how long it takes to get there.

Ending day 91 here. Good day off work. Just punctuated it with a nice AA meeting. Back to work tomorrow.

Hope everyone is doing well tonight!
