FTR: For the record
September 11th, 2008
For the record, today I am:
- Saddened that our world has not become more peaceful in the years since the American tragedy of 9/11 and fearful about the state of our country
- Thrilled that my son is adjusting well to his new school (and learning German. Dude!)
- Excited and proud of my kindergartner and her adventurous spirit
- Still in love with my grumpy, but loving husband
- Glad that work is going well, but wish I made more money
- Sad about losing my old friend and co-worker
- Nervous about supporting a candidate that is, essentially, a community organizer, but even more nervous about having a war monger in the White House (again)
- Eccsatic that my father-in-law is kicking cancer’s ass
- Thankful to be sober 3 1/2 years and part of a vibrant and supportive AA community
- Hanging on and hoping I can straighten my life out before it all falls apart
