Recovery from Me

todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful

that I didn't throw away any of my Mom's 1000's and 1000's of photos from her travels around the world -- I am taking some to her on each of my visits so she can see them again

that my Mom had the foresight a decade ago to purchase and maintain secondary insurance for Long-Term Nursing Care

that the Director of her nursing home has been of such great assistance to me with secondary insurance paperwork

that I could be of help to a couple of recovery friends yesterday

for Carol's story of despair and the honesty that has relieved her of that

that we filled up a whole hour with discussion about Tradition 9 this morning and did it with good shares from a variety of people

for the Spring weather we're now having - the temp is hitting the low 80's every day

The greatest thing in this world is not so much where we stand as in what direction we are moving.
-Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Dave, thanks for sharing this list. I remember wanting to literally choke my Dad when I found out that he didn't spend the extra $1 to $2 bucks a week for the long term or short term disability, and no will. He had no idea how totally worth it he was to spend those extra dollars.
