SG, enjoy the dance with your ten-year old! I don't see anything wrong with bringing nice wine that you won't drink. One way to think of it is like an allergy. Suppose you had a life-threatening peanut allergy and someone had given you an amazing peanut concoction gift and you gave that away to someone who could enjoy it. Would you feel conflicted in that case?

Morning overs. It's 5.41 am Saturday morning and a bit dull outside but I'm sure that will change.

I went get a coffee then forgot what I was doing! I seem to do this more nowadays .lol

Have a good Saturday

Warm here too and looks like it will be that way for a while! Today is my friends' annual Kentucky Derby party. No mint julep for me, although some burgoo and hot browns are in order.

Hey there.

Happy Mother's Day to all who qualify.

I can take my mom in small doses. Been seeing her once a week lately as I get allergy shots in her town. 9th step amends are lifelong.

I've been a bit down lately. The things that really matter in my life are all OK. That said, Work is not awesome, and my schedule is not the best. I've been more tired than usual. My diet and weight need some improvement. Finances are a bit stressful, but moving in the right direction steadily. I feel somewhat disconnected, and sometimes I feel like I just want to "check out" for a while. Real life can get overwhelming.

I know I'll be OK and that all feelings pass. Using won't make anything better, so I won't do it. Still I need to admit when it crosses my mind. Some things in my life I just need to accept, and other things I need to change.

Some days I'm full of confidence, and others I just persevere no matter how I feel. As of late the days have been more perseverance based. I'm waiting to turn the corner. I know I will because I have before. It could just come a little faster.

When I put everything in perspective things are obviously going fantastic for me. I'm just waiting for my emotions to catch up to the facts.

Your self-awareness is pretty awesome IvanMike.

I can still clearly remember the days when I just persevered, praying that it would get better. Looking back, I can't recall exactly when that changed, but it did. And the facts didn't really change, but the way I felt most definitely did.

No matter what is going on for me now, and this is not an easy day in the slightest, I have faith and belief that I am going to be OK.

Happy Mothers Day to all the Mothers. Gonna call mine later today and tell her how much I love her.

Today's avi is The Fendermen. They were a rockabilly duo from right here in Wisconsin. Jim Sundquist died in 2013 and Phil Humphrey just passed away recently. Their big claim to fame was this wacky little tune that hit #5 way back in 1960. It's one of those songs that can get stuck in your head for days:



Have a great Sunday, overs!

Hiya - been a fab weekend! I went to the 60th Scottish AA Convention and it was really good . Really great experience, strength and hope. I'm now flopped out and chilling ahead of work in the morning.
