Just got into bed after my night shift. Cold and wet outside today. I'm warm and comfy though.

24 more sober hours please.

Signing up for 24 hours drink and drug free. 6:26am in Jacksonville, Florida.

Congratulations to all celebrating milestones today

Well today is the day...Dorian is supposed to be offshore about 100 miles from Jacksonville. Forecast rain and winds most of the day. Three zones in the city have mandatory evacuation orders. Bridge closures expected if winds reach 40mph. I went out for a short time yesterday, my Tuesday AA meeting decided to cancel. Normally I would attend Bible study this morning and have a day filled with step work with sponsees, relapse prevention and life skills classes and ending with a speaker meeting but the city is pretty much shut down and they have evacuated the treatment center. I'm actually glad to have a Wednesday at home even if it is hurricane watching. Please continue to pray for all in Dorian's path.

Thinking of you this morning and all those who will be affected by the storm. Stay safe.

I know they can't hear me but it helps, just a little.

It's 22.40 here in the windy midlands of the UK and I have to be up at 05.00 to set out for work. I'm going to Melton Mowbray to service a tractor and deliver some parts. For anyone not too familiar with England, Melton Mowbray is home of the pork pie, one of my favourite snacks for lunch...

I'm very tired, very emotional, very lonely and very insecure about myself presently, but I'm keeping my head down, my mouth shut and getting on with what needs to be done.

Sending peace and love
James
You have a beautiful ritual going for your loved ones, with the candle and the prayer. I'm sorry you are lonely and feeling insecure. I hope you can find some hope and perhaps a vision for the future that will keep you moving forward.
Hope you got some of that pork pie too

Good morning everyone, good morning Suze.
I just read that you are studying addictions counseling- wow, just WOW. I couldn't think of a better career for you. You have so much love and passion and so much to give to others. I am very proud of you and even happier for you knowing you found something to focus on and build your life on.

I would love to catch up sometime. I'll send you a text today.
xoxo
Sunny

Ok, final post.
6:45 am. Slept in as I got home late from work last night.

I am confused. I have this back and forth energy that continues to go on about ending my marriage. I know in my heart that the romantic side is over. I am past the stage of denial, anger, depression and am now ready to accept.

Going to meet with one of my best friends tomorrow for advice and support.

I want more than anything to find a way to be financially prosperous and independent. I was looking into going to school to become a massage therapist but I don't think I can make the hours work at this point while still picking up the kids from school and working 3 days a week. I also think I need to stick to my original goal of building my Reiki practice and gaining more clients so that I can finally find a spot in a wellness center.

If anyone out there likes the metaphysical stuff like I do, Lee Harris puts out an "energy update" reading every month on YouTube. He reads the energy of the planet and gives advice. Well September is all about integration and grief turning into power. It's spot on for me. I have finally processed the final step in the grieving over the death of my marriage. And now I need to turn that grief into power, build my Reiki business and become the successful person I came here to be.

Ok, sorry for the novel.
Wishing everyone a wonderful day
Here for 24 more.

Really happy for you dear 1new. Sure, it takes a bit of getting used to, but nightshift has lots of benefits.....getting to enjoy the sunrise with breakfast before you go to bed.....all different but good as well I think.

And of course I knew you were kidding.....even the image of me on some keg roll or whatever is so funny that well, it's funny.
