Wow huge wake up call. As I was walking back through Union Station in Toronto to return to the airport, there was a massive amount of people walking everywhere. I happened to be behind this nicely dressed and groomed man that was staggering. He had a backpack with a fluid bottle on the side. He stops a young couple going by and slurs. They say, excuse me? Can you repeat that? He says where am I? They say you’re in Toronto sir. He waves his hand and stumbles away. He started to grab a post because he was about to fall over as I walk by. My heart sinks and I say a prayer for him. Albeit, it may be a health thing because I hate to profile everyone. But, it’s still a striking PTSD moment for me. And so many times, to this day, not remembering certain time frames drunk. Those of us sober tonight staying strong, should say a prayer for those struggling 
And be thankful to be blessed with sobriety.

I finally made it to Ireland this AM!
Customs was a bear but I survived and they let me through yay! Lol I met and talked to some absolutely beautiful Canadians Toronto was a wonderful experience and such a lovely city! I would love to go back one day and just vacation and explore more!
But so far, the best part of my day has been to meet my beautiful granddaughter Mèabh Rebecca!! I’m in love with this little one!!!
My son and dil have some plans for a few adventures and I will certainly post pics of beautiful Ireland! I may even have a Conor sighting 
On the sobriety level, the first thing my eyes go to in the fridge is my sons beer and my dil’s bottle of wine. I’m not tempted by the least, but it’s funny how my brain goes straight to it. My son asks me if this will bother me because he can get rid of it. But no I’m fine. The longer I go on this journey, the more confident I get having it around. It was sweet of him to offer though
Jet lag is a bitch. I’ll be posting at odd hours
