I finally listened to my first speaker from the website recovery audio that MsV gave us few months ago! Been wanting to listen but either forgot(even though bookmarked it) or was able to go mtgs. But now working overnight, so going mtgs is tricky, I’ve curved out time to on the way there.

She is as strong as they come; so proud of her courage though she is probably very near the end of her life. You just never know and it does no good to worry— just keep going.
We were with her all weekend, and finally she was able to eat supper tonight and her condition is stable. I am home and exhausted but it’s all worth it to finally see her smile and relax . A day at a time, sometimes a minute. Very grateful to be sober and able to really step up. We have a lovely young caregiver who is such a blessing.
I’m happily in warm pajamas, focusing on the good. I haven’t had time to sleep and have eaten little, and have a full week of intense work coming but it all pales in comparison to what matters most. I’ll catch up and be ok. I have a little extra holiday stuffing on me anyway..I’m quite unlikely to starve
If I was drinking I would be a real mess. Now it’s quite possible that nothing, I mean nothing will bother me at all this week. I’ll probably annoy everyone with my upcoming Monday morning cheer. There will be more tension and more drama and I will get in trouble for laughing. I’ve been sucked into that so many times—I’m done! Move us to the Outer Banks..Okracoke Island. I’ll commute the 48 hours each way
Maybe everyone will quit. So what! My mother smiled at me and was no longer in pain when I left tonight—it’s all I need.
Yes 24 more for me! I missed you 24s, all of my friends and the Cat. There are no groceries in the house.. Is popcorn food? Of course it is. I am not eating kibble. Ready for a show- my bed feels amazing right now!
Hope you are doing well—need to catch up on posts.
Love

Popcorn can definitely count as a meal. Hopefully tomorrow you’ll have some time to get a few groceries in.
