Sometimes I take life to seriously so I am trying to lighten up a bit! I could complain about just about anything but I refuse to today. I have not had a major incident today either. I am grateful for days like these because tomorrow might be different & maybe difficult. I just have to hold on to the now & enjoy the good moments in my life.

So, my AH is sober today & is doing well health-wise. He is 70 years old & is able to chop wood, etc. He is in better shape than I am I think sometimes. Not complaining; just saying. I am just happy to be able to do anything like walk & exercise. I have pain but I work through it!

Alanon has taught me so much about acceptance. I am learning to accept each situation as it is & not try to change it to my own desires. Does that make sense? I don't know exactly what I am trying to say these days. Maybe I just need to get more rest. I plan on spending the weekend catching up after having my sister up here for a week. For some reason I couldn't seem to get a whole lot done while she was here. I guess that is par for the course. I don't know really but I do know that I am behind on my spring cleaning. I have chaos in my extra bedrooms. It will take a lot of work but I am up for it.

So, I don't want to be so serious today. I wish I had a joke or anectdote to share. I am just trying to be the best me I can be & hopefully be there for someone today.

I need to feel some serenity today, too. I guess I might already have some.

I hope you all can make some sense of this post. I am a work in progress.
