Sweet Dreams Tonight...


smileWOW... What a day..About two weeks ago, my older sister and I thought it would be nice if we could take my ABrother and his kids and ours skating... Well we never thought that my Abrother would go.. Only because every time, he gets right to the last second, and has an excuse why "we can take the kids" but he can't!!!

Well... Today... He Surprized us all...He went...Paid his own way, paid for both his kids "Rare thing" ... It was like one of the best days I have had in a long time...Its been over a year or longer since my child drug me on skates, but I tore it up.biggrin.. But the butterflys that I felt all day today, was unbelievable..To seen my brother doing something fun, and playing with his kids, and the looks on thier faces when they would see him fly by...

I know now... It is time for me to go back to my old way of thinking... "It you expect nothing... Your Never Disappointed"... For me it worked..I could enjoy my son and all the kids, and not worry about what "Dumb" thing he was going to do next... It was all about me and my HP.... I tell ya.. It works... I let him come to me, And he came... One day at a time..For once I feel like I got a step or two ahead..But I know it is a small step, but if I had enough time to tell you all of it I would have carpral tunnel... But I know you all understand what it means to just have a day that is just heaven sent...From Start to Finish... :)

I just wanted to share a piece of my happiness... I know that sometimes we all just need a happy ending... To get to spend the day with my niece, and nephews, and grandkids, and their parents... WOW... What a day... There is nothing but sweet dreams tonight... :)

WIshing each & everyone of ya the same...
Prayers & Hugs to All

That's wonderful ((((Missing))))),

Glimpses of sobriety, especially for the children who want that Daddy back.

I too have learned to cherish my brother, sober or not.  I only have this one day with him each time I see him.

Glad to hear some good news,
Maria
