Did my first actual share at a rehab meeting last night. My voice shook but the ladies really seemed to identify with me, since unlike the other 3 women from outside the facility I was with, I'm right where they are. I don't have years of sober experience and wisdom but I can attest that my life is infinitely better than it was a few months ago. It was rewarding despite my body shaking from the anxiety. Really wish there was a cure for that.

Hope everyone has a lovely nightmare free day!

I’m sorry it was so nerve wracking to share but I have a feeling that the more you do it, the more comfortable it will become. You are doing great and have come so far!
Sorry about the injury and I hope it heals with ease.

My head is so scrambled it seems. I rushed to get both boys to play therapy for our older son only to remember that I had changed the appointment to 45 minutes later so that I would NOT have to take them both (my husband would have been home). Ugh. Trying to do anything after school is super stressful!
They are on their tablets and we are waiting. Just wanted to see what everyone was up to...

I have a calendar on the fridge....a huge one with every day of the month in squares so I can write things down that we can both see....no idea how anyone manages without one. What if you forget to check your phone? I do. :hug: ❤️
