Yum - ice cream and brownies! 
Chocolate milk!! I’m feeling dessert coming on here in San Diego.
Suze, I know from experience that a fractured elbow is really painful. I’m sorry!!! It seemed like it took forever to heal. Take good care.
PJ, I’m smiling about your day at art school.
11 months sober today. Woo Hoo!!

Good morning friends. Late check in. I've been sippin' startin' fluid and contemplating making a meatloaf for dinner tonight.
That's not exactly celebrating National Ice Cream day now is it Purp? Oh well. I'll have a brownie and Southern Butter Pecan ice cream after the meatloaf and smashed taters!!!

Well, I am on a self imposed diet, as I think my bod reached at point, where the kilo's I have put on since getting my wonderful car- is just too much. It seems everything bad for me suddenly got a thousand times tastier.
Stupid something I can blame except me.
Prayers sent to all who are sore, sad or something.
Saw this amazing mechanical thing. This lady was obviously wheelchair dependent, and had a 'robot arm' (like the one on the space shuttles)- that lifted her wheel chair from near the driver's door- and neatly folded it into the back area of her station wagon. Presumably she has some way to close the back lift up door thing . I was not going to gawk at it, but thought that was really good.
Back at studying art with rules. I think the lecturer has something to do with part of my complete stress out last year- thinking I was a failure. I am holding my own with the info- this lecturer has notes (last year taking notes was a no-no, and no notes were given..plus lots of more modern ways of teaching other than just watching once and practicing).
I am finding the standing for 4h to be vexing and had prewarned the lecturer of my eccentric learning style and soreness. My GP (replacement doc at the time) prescribed tramadol for break through pain- as I told her of my caution at using codeine products. Well the tramadol does not work- at all. So it's back to the GP to work something out.
It still seems a little surreal reconnecting with one of my sons (a good first contact) but I am perhaps wise enough to take this slowly and not expect a Disney movie outcome from it.
Que sera. The journey goes thus- initial rage turns to anger- which is shaped into change my behavior. The last 3.9y (the burns incident is 4y at the end of August) Guilt and shame is replaced by regret and sadness.
Sadness reflects understanding of how things are- which leads into acceptance and finally letting go.
Getting there.

Good morning, guys.
Good night, PHX.
Dang, that was an inspired post, PHX. A thought will come up of something I did, some way I neglected my family during that time and my stomach will hurt. I still feel the sadness too. But, like you, I'm getting there. I'm still so amazed to watch your growth these past 3 plus years. It has truly been an honor.
Things are going well in my world. No one is having heart attacks, no one is going to the psych ward, and Nathan is doing okay today.
Have a fantastic day, guys!
