Thought Iād pop on and say hi. So many, many things going on. Brand new great grandson born one week ago. In process of fixing up the house in prep of selling it. Moving out of Florida and heading north to Michigan. Have missed having seasons for too long. Been feeling a bit depressed and lonely but such is life. My recovery allows me to feel my feelings without letting them rule my life so I know better days are ahead. Health isnāt the best but Iām 71 years old now. Iām frankly surprised I made it this far. Grateful for each day. Hope you all have been feeling blessed.

Wow youāre super busy. And youāre right, being a homemaker is a tough job and hard work. Your dream of a natural product business will come to fruition, and not a little one at that. Think big. You just need to believe. Hope you get that job in the meantime. Take care

Woke up at 2:30am with the sweats and stomach issues(rare for me), so I got maybe 2-3 hours of sleep before 7am. Layed on the couch all day, until 5pm bc I promised my girl weād get her new sneakers today. Went to the mall. Itād been over a year so it was a nice way to spend my day off with my daughter. Got her a few other things. I feel like Iāve been up for ages so itās almost time for bed. Have a good one everyone

thank you my friend :] ! iāve been finding my time with my HP to be very healing and refreshing so far, and i think my addict mind wants to jump the gun and āfixā every relationship and problem i have now now now! but you bring up a valid and key point, it will take time and iāll have to show them how my HP works through me, not just say it!
thank you again, friend, i appreciate you sharing your wisdom with me :] best wishes and i hope youāre well <3 !

Another busy day at work. Almost finished, just got a little work out in. Thats me done for the week for work, taking leave on my nightshifts to head out of town for my brothers bday party. Will be a boozy one with many old friends there.
Making the trip away to see family the focus rather than the Saturday night party. Iām committed to not drinking, not worried about that.

Downward slope towards the weekend and Iām fully confident that there will be no drink when I get there. Thatās a great feeling. I have some heavy calls in work today that will challenge my anxiety but I have a plan and a system. Once I get those over with Iām going to plan some runs and activities for the weekend.
Have a great day

Day 1054 AF
Wud up, gang.
Went for a walk this morning with the wifey. Chilled at the apartment, watched a baseball game, read another chapter of This Naked Mind, and went for another walk at the park this evening.
Canāt believe Iāll be 3 years sober next month. Iām pretty stoked for that. The days are flying. Feeling confident about sobriety. I never want to go back to the old drunken me.
Gonna stretch and then pass out. Itās back to the grind tomorrow.
Hope everyoneās doing well. ODAAT
@Jules000 Congrats on the apartment!
@SassyBoomer Congrats on your grandson! Itās good seeing you post.
@Just_Laura sorry about the stomach issues. I try to stay away from the mall. Youāll catch me at the Swap Meet. Hope you get some rest tonight.

Iām here, Iām alive, Iām sober and Iām happy.
Day 190.
We watched Halloween town last night.
Itās one of our favorites and weāve watched it every fall and Halloween for as long as itās been available in Sweden.
And while Iāve always thought that āBeing normal is vastly overratedā there was another movie line that did struck harder this time.
āMagic is really very simple, all youāve got to do is want something and then let yourself have it.ā
I do know a few family (gypsy)spells, jinx,curses and hexes and other āmagicā and always wished I could snap with my fingers and make things appear or disappear, or turn into creatures. I realized that itās not actually what theyāre pointing at in the movie.
Affirmations which is gained popularity especially on Instagram works pretty much the same way. You tell Universe what you want and starts to work for it. All of us here do that everyday. We wanted a better life, and started to work towards that goal. Not everyday is easy like movie magic of course, but itās easier than it was before,most days.
āMagic is really very simple, all youāve got to do is want something and then let yourself have it.ā
Simple as that.
Also, weāve got one sponsor for our Trunk or Treat event. My mother and sister is going to come and back us up if we wonāt get anyone else to attend, weāll be at least 3 cars. And we havenāt even got the posters up yet.
Thatās all Folks 
Wishing yāall a wonderful day.
