Giving Thanks.
November 16th, 2007
Today, I am so grateful. Grateful for the ups and the downs. I hate sounding like a cheeseball (I still hold the ridiculous notion that somewhere in the Universe someone might still consider me cool), but the truth is that I’m a grateful cheeseball. A grateful, recovery alcoholic cheeseball.
- I think I found a meditation group to meet with. Finally, a Sangha!
- I have a friend. A real friend. A new friend that accepts me how I am and is not in the program.
- I love my husband. And he loves me….whack job that I am.
- I am sober. I was introduced to AA and it works for me.
- New products and authentic marketing. Work can be fun. Always too much to get done, but still fun. It is what I make it.
- My children. Right now they shine in my eyes. School is good and they are happy. Can a mother ask for more?
- Just the sheer possibility that we might one day (soon?) have a mother as President make me giddy. Fucking giddy.
- Busy weekend plans: hair (where the hell did that gray come from!?), moving friends, meetings, children’s birthday parties, movies, fellowship, organic chicken and spaghetti.
- My BFF’s new baby will be born soon and I will be privileged to be there. I will be emotionally and physically available to my dearest friend and her family.
