Tomorrow I get to meet my Nikko's former family. I have been emailing them since we got him last summer and now they are coming to visit him at our home. I am really excited to meet them as they gave him six wonderful loving years before they found out their boys had a severe allergy to dogs.
I am delighted that this is an "open adoption" and that I can share him with his "birth" parents. I hope he remembers them and wags his tail when he hears their voices. That would make them feel so good!
I love my doggies!!!

You're giving away all the Bottoms tricks stone!
How was the meeting?
Hi IO
.No yoga today... still resting the groin. So we went to Six Flags. Lines were too long, too many people. Kids were cranky so we went to the grocery store. NY strip steaks on the grill (veggie burgers for the girls)... fresh Jersey corn and TOMATOES! Kids are happy. I am full. I think I still have room for some chocolate though

Looks like it's been pretty quiet around here.
I'm really glad you got to a meeting, Paul.
I went to a meeting with two new girls today - one of them hungover and had to leave the meeting twice to puke! YIKES I don't miss that.
My baby sister is moving to Scotland - for as long as two years, possibly. I offered to take her cat. Guess what his name is? It's Rowan!! He's black with green eyes and really long fur. He is gorgeous! It's weird calling him Rowan though.
Tomorrow after the morning meeting I have to put on my jungle clothing and pull weeds and cut the grass in my enormous yard. I have recruited one of my newly sober pals to help! There's a method to my madness!
Sobriety - and life - have been going really well. Nothing on the outside has changed i.e winning the lottery, but I feel GOOD inside, you know? What a gift.
Love you guys.
p.s. oh, and my tip of the day? don't barbecue in the dark. the pork chops caught fire.
p.p.s. saw Dark Knight with daughter and nephew this afternoon it ROCKED.

It's been a pleasant slow day. The house is clean for my company tomorrow and I didn't have a lot more to do. Just taking it easy and one day at a time.
I am getting to know you all and am very happy to be part of this cyber family. You all continually bless me with your experience strength and hope. I take courage in the struggles of others. Sharing ways to stay sober. And if I'm helping someone else, then I don't feel so bad either!
I love you all.

The meeting was really good Gyps, the saturday meeting is one of my faves. The guy who took me through the steps is always there, breaking my balls, lol.
I have had a really positive first week sober, I have kept busy and not let myself get too manic or too depressed.
I don't have true manic depression but I do have depression and I go a bit manic when I first sober up.
Some thoughts about how to make buddhism type stuff fit the AA program and fit me are falling into place.
Each morning I get a feeling of determination to be sober, I actually feel it in my stomach. Nothing could happen today that would make me drink.
I am woman hear me roar in fact, lol.
