The new mother board is installed...obviously and the computer is computing so from
my own desk I'm back in the MIP room with family.  I didn't cause it, couldn't control
it and couldn't cure it.  I had to have other people in my life to do for me what I could
not and would not do for myself.  Isn't that a lesson...LOL.  I didn't even have the
temptation to do for me what my HP had others available to do.  In the past my ego
and pride would have convinced me to go beyond where others have tread and so I
got honest and just accepted the fact of the situation, the condition of it and the
people who were available to a solution and did the walk.  I didn't just roll over and
play dead...I did my part as taught in the Family Groups and here at home in MIP
and accepted the reality of the situation including having to pay for time to get home
here and having to pay for the new board and installation (gulp) and it's done.

One of the acceptances was that I would not have my daily dose of MIP experience,
strength and hope and of course unconditional love and I learned it would and I would
be okay anyway.

I also met a person (my fixer) who had alot to talk about from where she came and
was grateful for the conversations.  "When anyone anywhere reaches out for help
let the hand of Al-Anon always be there and let it begin with me."   LOL you get
directed by HP even thru a busted Desktop.  My HP is cunning, powerful and
baffling.   Good to be home.    ((((((MIP))))))
