I understand those feelings Sam. I hope they fade fast and something bright comes your way soon.

Checking in tonight from a business trip. Good things that happened this week....

My first physical in like 10 years went pretty well. I didn't get totally reprimanded at least! Anxious to get blood work back to see how my poor liver is doing.

Took my sweet beagle Tinkerbelle to a doggie oncologist today because early tests seemed to indicate she had cancer...and found there's a high likelihood that she doesn't have it...or it's a treatable kind that hasn't spread beyond a lump on her tail. So so happy to hear that.

The doggie oncologist name? Dr Mutz. Not kidding. Lol!

There was a beautiful sunset on the Pacific tonight that I saw from the plane.

Grateful for good health.

Signing off from a cheesy hotel in Fresno,
Me

Dr. Mutz? LOL Lillian! Fingers crossed that your blood work comes back just fine!

Sam, PR, Kiki, BBG, Christina, Phoenix ~ I'm sending vibes for a "blah-less" day ~ Here's a quote we should all remember:

Morning!

Hope your pup is okay LG. ❤️ Love your list of good things that happened to you this week. Funny enough I was just thinking that I really need to start focusing on the positive in my life. Theres a lot to be grateful for. (P.S. Dr. Mutz - lol! When I was a kid my pediatricians name was Dr. Healy...always thought that was funny too)

PJ - enjoy your volunteering today!!

Hey Purplrks! Have a great day!! Blah-less sounds good to me!

Well I am off to work. Back in routine and feeling better. I have a presentation to do this morning to one of the big wigs of the entire company. Wish me luck!!

Happy hump day!!

Hi to y'all. Did museum shift - all good. Then a 10k walk with a friend and a meeting last night. Thursday morning 0730. Shower, early counseling- another big walk then a meeting.

Glad your presentation went well, Sam ~ I had a feeling it would!

Hey Phoenix, Peaceful Rain and everyone else!

Been reading a little of my material on Chakra meditation....I'm hoping it's not just part of my "spend-aholic" behavior.....like playing with a shiny new toy for a couple days then it collects dust on the shelf.

Drum lesson tonight!

Thanks everyone for helping me stay sober today!

Back to work tomorrow, and if this is what I come up with when I have time on my hands, then that's a good thing. Busy sometimes sucks but it keeps my head and my mind occupied.

Quiet night on the horizon and an early bedtime.

Focusing on how good it feels to be sober. ❤️❤️
Yes I feel Lonely sometimes.....surrounded by people but still alone. I know you don't want to go to AA, but it's truly the only place I don't feel alone. I am surrounded by people who know EXACTLY how I feel. They get me.

Hi Gang!!!

I guess I've been pretty absent for a while now - we've been house shopping. I hope everyone is doing great, and i'll try to catch up on everything over the next few days.

The condo we have is nice, but we need a little more space. It's been stressful, as house shopping can be, but I think we've found a nice place. Maybe keep the condo and rent it out.

I'm at 2 months and 4 days - so I'm happy about that. After we get the house/condo thing worked out, I need to refocus on health and happiness - feeling good though and miss you guys

I am addicted to this show like BBG is to BBT

Finished counseling..the temp lady today- has only seen me- when I first moved into the recovery program July lst year. She struggled to find a word to describe my 'transformation'. She settled on 'incredible'. In the tone of voice some one uses when they have to believe something- but do not believe it. Then another big walkies. Working- have lost 4kg since mindfully losing weight. Sleep well people on the wrong side of the earth.

Man I got a lot done today, I even surprised myself.

Now I am laying in bed enjoying the quiet getting ready to drift off.

Nighty night everyone!
