Hello Dharma love.....Bill said it well....I'm over the moon. But grounded, and organised. I need to be, because this all actually got a whole lot bigger.

Not sure what any of that means Bill.....not to worry.
This is so important to me ~ I have come a long way to find the joy in sobriety I knew was there.
When I started this thread, I asked for help....I still need that help.
This is a brave and terrifying journey at the same time...and I am going to do every step of it with the support of my SR buddies. ♥

Suze, I gather from something you mentioned earlier that you have revised your itinerary to be more efficient geographically.
How are you doing with plans for transportation from visit to visit?
That must be a daunting task--but where there's a will there's a way!

Dear Suze:
I guess I "blotted my copybook" (as the Brit. toffs say) again since I recall that your cat passed away awhile back. I've lost several pets and the only way i could deal with that was to get another dog. Actually I may have said something along those lines to you awhile back. It shows how age inevitably affects memory. Sorry that I am failing in that regard.
So it's too soon to your trip to get another cat. Can you borrow one? "Rent" one (e.g. take it "on approval" and kennel it when you are away)? Visit a neighbor or friend who has one.?
In default of achieving a catharsis along those lines (sorry!) I have found that it always helps to tell others, not necessarily here on SR but perhaps a friend or other person in recovery. Better not to isolate, bottle it up, etc.
And remember the song from the musical "Annie": "Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya' tomorrow! You're always a step away!" May your tomorrows always be brighter and may the wind be always at your back!
Fondly, Bill.

Thank you so very much guys ~ A good night's sleep helped ~ I am a touch overwhelmed.
However, I am also 1 year and 11 months sober today ♥
Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine I could get here.....and I am going to celebrate 2 years sober in the US.
