So, every day is not rosey. I guess today could be one of those days if I let it. I am really just beginning my day. Time is going so fast that it is almost scary & hard to bear. But, in recovery we take it a day at a time. I am not an expert at anything but there are some things I do well. I am searching for more blessings & answers to my life problems. If only I knew what I am really good at these days. I find myself sitting in front of the TV w/ all the xtra time I have these days. So, I try to focus on the things that make me happy. Hopefully I won't ruin my own happiness by being foolish & not getting the most out of what life has to offer. I don't have a driver's license so sometimes I need wings. I guess what I am trying to say in all this rambling is this: Only I can do what I need to do to make myself happy & can do for others. I am not a selfish person. I do things for others. Someone told me more than once is to find happiness do something for someone else.
I feel like I am always repeating myself. I guess I do it to remind me of what I need to remember. I am still a work in progress.
Today I just sat on the couch and watched TV. I been sick since this morning and I'm glad I'm feeling a little better now. I know your feeling of not doing enough for yourself or making the most of your life but sometimes you just need to sit and not do a thing but vegetate. I work very hard during the week so I'm always tired when the weekend comes.
We all have many problems but we can only take one at a time and find a answer. If not we need to let it go until another day.
I wish you the best in whatever you find to do but my friend take it one day at a time.
Hugs

Hoot...I don't have a drivers license either although I am very, very slowly working on it. Maybe by the time I am 40 I might be on the road...lol. But probably not. Well the other day I tried out an electric bicycle and I loved it so much that I have decided to buy one. I think it is going to be my new best friend
They are kinda cool...I don't know if that is the kind of "wings" you need but it's a little bit of freedom for me...just a thought
