I just want to share that I am truly filled with happiness right now. Just two years ago, my AH had passed away suddenly right in the midst of our divorce proceedings, I was living in a very small small apartment by myself, my AD was not speaking to me and did not want to see me, I didn't have a dime to my name and was living paycheck to paycheck, and I hated my job- but needed it so that I could pay my bills and have benefits.

Today, I'm packing my tiny little place and moving to a larger place starting tomorrow, where I can host my visiting family and friends, I started a new job last month which makes me happy and pays well, my AD has started to come around. And I'm thankful that I didn't end up having to divorce my AH. I still loved him until the day he was gone. I just couldn't live with him anymore and watch him choose to slowly kill himself with alcohol.

I am so thankful for these blessings. And how did this all come about? I keep going to Al-Anon meetings, work my program, talk things over with my sponsor, read my Al-Anon daily readers every day, and put my trust in the plan that my HP has for me. I gave up thinking that I was in control of everything. Turns out, I'm not, but my HP is. Sometimes I slip and have bad days, but all in all, life is good!
