Welp... Made it thru another eventful weekend... Boys had a Soccer Game 1st thing in the morning on Saturday... I had thought about goin to camp, but knew that there was just to much to get done at home for that to happen...
I did get alot done, and I am very grateful for that, and in doing so I found quite a bit of accomplishment, in myself for moving forward and getting it done... I was bust'n concrete, plant'n grass, clean'n out my pantry (YAY), and cleanin and scrubin about everything in sight... It wasn't a lazy one for sure...
I was also pleased to get to my old F2F Friday night...See some faces I miss seeing from time to time, in this crazy life I lead... I have been slowly excepting who and what I am and can be if I wrap my mind around my dreams, and desires... Things I haven't thought of for some time... I am grateful everyday to get out of bed and just "HAVE" a job to go to, and have a roof over my head, and a family that loves me the best they can...I spent some time reflecting on my program and what I have gained from it this far, and I was Amazed at how far I have come... Things that use to throw me over the edge, now seem to take on less power over me, (How Important Is It) which I couldn't be more grateful for...
I am takin back when I realize how "Crazy" I would allow myself to get over things that are Out Of my Control... And the tools that I now have to work thru those times is amazing as well... Who knew that a couple words thrown together (Keep it Simple)could make such a differance in my life, when i take the time to think of them when things become unmanagable...(This Too Shall Pass)
I can now BREATHE in light of the chaos... (Let Go & Let God)I can now except that I am NOT perfect nor do I have the desire to be.(Progress Not Profection).. My Progress yes at times is slow, even froze in time at moments, but it is Progress just the same... I have found that in using my tools, (Easy Does It) and keeping my program in Check, (First Things First) I do have More POWER then I have ever had, now that I allow HP to lead the way Too & Thru my recovery... (Listen & Learn)
I always knew in my Heart, I Had an HP, I just never opened up my mind, and my life to the fact He could be my Lead in life, that he could help me make it thru... I would send endless prayers, but never felt the presents of my HP's Being... Now I can honestly say that I know Everyday my HP is there..Listening...Waiting... And Guidin me to a Better Me... WHO KNEW!!! (Keep An Open Mind)
I have tried not to take for granted the things in my life that I have been blessed with, I have tried my best to be respectful, (Live & Let Live) and learn from my past "Blow Ups", and in doing so, I now hold my head a little higher, and my heart is less heavy with total distress...(Let it Begin with Me)
I have made some pretty big changes in ME these last 9 months... And I know I have only scratched the surface of my recovery, and I am not in any hurry really..(Just for Today) . I am enjoying my Recovery Ride, (Just One Day at A Time)... And slowly learning that "I" can be better, do better, and want more from myself... And not for the sake of anyone but ME... And that is something I longed for almost ALL my life...
Thank You ACA/Al-Anon for helping guide me to the Peace that I now have in my own skin... You are all a blessing to me..My Recovery... & My Life....
Thanks for listen... Love & Hugs & Prayers to All That has been there for me in my times of need and dispare, times of Love & sharing, Its great to have a famliy that has that find of impact on my life... I am very blessed to have MIP in my life... (Together We Can Make it)
