Yet another bump...


Amoungst all the nastiness and fog of alcohol....and stress...and finances...
just when the stuggles and juggles seem somewhat 'steady'...the road of life get more bumps and holes for travel.

Without dragging my thoughts through the grimey muck of this deep sink hole, I am remembering steps 1, 2 and 3.  Letting it all go is such a HARD task to learn...and yet the most basic, needful thing to learn in life.  Stress seems to try SO hard to take the forefront of my life...but I simply try to remember that life will be life...and take all of it one day at a time.

Mud is mud.   Ain't gonna hurt you....and it ain't gonna kill you.  Hell fire, you might as well play in it----it washes off!  Right??

So, for now...I'm playing in the mud...and remembering the simplistic joy of making mud pies and throwing them at the walls of pain and torment.

Sigh.....what a relief!!  And it all came from my bump in the road!!!  wink

Yours in recovery....step by step,
Just For Now

Just,
That was great. Way to work it.

And heck who wouldn't mind playing in the mud pies every now and then, as long as it's mud stay away from the cow pies.

Yours in recovery,
Mandy
