(((((Nora G)))))...I love it..so gay and merry it lifts my spirits. Thanks much and I am glad to see your post and picture before the Christmas holiday I had missed you and your ESH so went back to read your intro. I wish you much!! (((((hugs)))))
Thanks, Jerry, Iamhere, David, hotrod, PosiesandPuppies, Freetime, and the rest of this board.
Ain't the digital world wonderful? It can be mean but so long as there are places where I can find recovery I see it as wonderful.
This holiday season will be based on the KISS principle. Wednesday is a meeting day. Since I'm not in the US it's almost 11 here.
One thing I heard from a member whose recovery I admire said that when she moved she realized that any place she would move had meetings and so had people who already loved her. i hope everyone here knows that you all have loads of Al-Anon family all over the globe.
My chief goals remain recovery, self-care and creativity which all overlap. Al-Anon is love: when you give it away you get it back.
Beautiful card and beautiful post Nora. May you and yours and everybody on the board here have a safe and happy and healthy, love filled Christmas and New Years
