I got back from London last night.
Safe & sound.
Sober & serene.
What more can I ask for?
todAAy i AAm grAAteful & thAAnkful
that somehow, I can still make sobriety the most important aspect of my life while tending to other matters
for the meetings I attended while in the UK; they are very much like the meetings I attend each day here in Houston, although I didn't see anyone I recognized
that because of some things that have recently happened inmy life, I can now understand the phrase "it is what it is" to a much greater and more detailed degree
for so many reminders of why I live in this country
that I finally got to meet Kenny (Recovery Road) although we didn't get to spend much time chatting nor did we attend a meeting together
that I got to see Liz while in London; we've known each other and been bestest friends since 1989; an amazing woman!
that I even worked out at the gym a couple of times while on vacation (with Hayden pushing me a bit) and managed to remain on my new diet
"We only go around once. There's really no time to be afraid. So stop. Try something you’ve never tried. Teach it. Do it. Risk it."

Welcome home. Your font is really tiny today. See you at TLC.
Hi darlin'...yes I'm really glad I live in the country of Texas also...oh wait..that is what you meant right? I hope you found your home safe and sound also, and not water logged. You did miss some great thunderstorms...sorry, but I'm sure you can catch the next one in a few days.
Welcome back, dAAve. I missed you.
Welcome back! I missed you. It sounds like a great trip - but I always think the best part of a good trip is coming home.
Dear dAAve,
OH, I am so happy you're home safe, sound and sober !
I missed you Honey !

Welcome back! Working out and sticking to your diet while on vacation? Outstanding!!
Glad that your visit was good. I like visiting other countries but am glad to get home. Thanks for your comments to me. I have been troubled by the close encounter of the troubled mind at the Al-Anon meeting. I am letting it go.
