Weeding Out the Gratitude

todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

for a good meeting with my sister regarding our Mom's near-term future and living accomodations

that I am healthy and sober - today! All the "bad" stuff is secondary.

for those willing to serve on the Lambda Center Board; it's a wonderful service and learning opportunity

that I had no desire, compulsion or thought about having alcohol over the weekend even though I was isolating

to have heard that isolating from those in recovery is just another form of selfishness -- Does it ever end? LOL

that I always find ways to keep myself busy

that I finally repainted part of my living/dining room - I had given it thought since I moved here in September 2003

that my friend Liz (UK) lives close to Prince Wiliam's new home in Sandhurst -- get pictures Liz!!

My mind is a garden. My thoughts are the seeds. My harvest will be either flower or weeds.

yes lots of flowers... lots and lots... but if you do get a weed, never fear, it just means you have to work your program!

I loathe painting. My wife loves to change wall colors. I have one wall that I have repainted six times in three years....Cranberry Zing, Tangerine something or other. Imperial Blue, Cranbery ZIng with Tangerine frottage. Makes me nuts.

I used to like painting while stoned. ;)

The longer I look at other peoples gardens the more weeds I see.

I used to have a boyfriend that was really into frottage.
