After starting my day with my head in recovery. I had a counseling appointment that helped me to get balanced within regarding communicating my wants and needs to others. I went to the dentist and got a cleaning, worked out with a friend and I took my third final and got an A, I am happy right now. After such a hard semester in the fall, this Spring semester I have 3 A's in my classes now and one more final to go on Monday and may be able to finish that class with an A, if I get a good score on the final, which is possible. I am excited and am proving to myself I can get through nursing school, be a good Mom to my 16 year old daughter that recently started driving on her own and who has all A's this year and is playing awesome in her varsity soccer games. Things are going good all around and I am feeling like the journey is getting better. My sponsor is on hospice care right now and since I did home hospice care for 12 years in the past, her husband has asked me to take some shifts and I am trying to figure out how to work it out for a few days and leave my 16 year old here alone. I want to go spend the time with her and it's definitely something I am good at.
This Summer starts for me after next week and I need to decide whether to pick up a second job or just find a new job altogether. I am traveling to Texas in June for 2 weeks to see my best friend and her kids which is exciting, first Summer in 2 years I am going somewhere, because I have no classes I have to take until Fall. I have a 4 day trip planned for my girls and I at a Christian concert camping retreat later in Summer, I will invite the boyfriend and his girls if things are still flowing by then, so there seems to be lots to look forward to and it is nice to just feel okay in the moment and know there is no chaos, crisis or drama going on in my life right now and I can just relax and enjoy it. I communicated with my exAh and compromised out getting more in child support and it went really well and I will be getting my little one back in a month and a half. So all seems good right now and I will take it! I am sending you all love and support on your journey's.
