Neoo- no you are not a disaster. You did what you have to do- did not touch booze, you are spreading your professional wings and trying new stuff..a new life. I know this is a poor analogy (or whatever) but consider this..I have had 8 addresses in the last 2 years. The hardest 2 of my life. No family, money, possessions or home. I am waiting for the new unit- which took a lot of effort and hard work to reach..the housing people took a long time to agree to me being allowed into the whole game- be-c I am co-titled on the family home I have not seen since my burns.
I was told end of this week I will move in. I spent 15 hours that day- packing and cleaning. First thing Monday morning- I was told it is delayed- because that is what happens in large organisations, be it paper work or staff or whatever.
I cannot change this- so with clumsy grace I accept it, and focus just on today- the next hour, the next meal- the next activity.
My life is not over. Memories and thoughts and feelings do not change what has happened. The die is cast so I have to wait.

Now- it is a poor comparison be-c your stuff is courts and stuff. But you have done so well up to now, being upset is natural, but your life is still there- we are still here..the world still turns.
Now hopefully, I can keep with my oh so wise words- if there are any more delays!
Support to you my friend. Give yourself some breathing space..go and treat yourself to some really great food, or a movie or whatever.

But then I'm probably just on the wrong side of crazy. I'll be doing it again this year. It's fantastic. Let me know if anyone wants to join my team. Tough mudder isn't timed so everyone helps everyone round the course and it's not competitive. It really is fabulous. Honest xxx

Did you guys always like vegemite?

What are the best things to eat vegemite with? Toast & butter? Eggs? What are good recipes?

I am intrigued!

Good morning beautiful world of SR

"I AM A MIRACLE"
The central fact of our lives today is the absolute certainty that our Creator has entered into our hearts and lives in a way which is indeed miraculous. He has commenced to accomplish those things for us which we could never do by ourselves.
ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, p. 25
This truly is a fact in my life today, and a real miracle. I always believed in God, but could never put that belief meaningfully into my life. Today, because of Alcoholics Anonymous, I now trust and rely on God, as I understand Him; I am sober today because of that! Learning to trust and rely on God was something I could never have done alone. I now believe in miracles because I am one!

She use to ask permission, but seems to think it is okay. I suppose so..but not what I am used to. When I was a kid- affection was given only a xmas- with a back rub from my mum.

There was a guy at the meeting today- who is waiting on the prognosis of cancer. Another long term sober member relected a story of a guy who was dying of cancer, sober for decades who said that it is not what happens to us that defines us- but what we do about it.

I agree.
