May I be the first to say congratu-BLOODY-lations!!! Eight months is a serious amount of time. Last week, our counsellor said people were only solidly in recovery after six months. So you’re my freakin’ hero, my friend.
You must be exhausted. I will be following in your footsteps tomorrow, after my group and meditation. Lotsa cleaning to do. My sister is arriving from overseas and will be staying with us for two weeks or more (I’m pretty sure it will be more). My bedroom is a disgusting shambles. I always leave it to last and then it just gets a "lick-and-a-promise", as my Mum would say, lol!!! But tomorrow will be the day.
This weekend, we’ll be driving two hours out West to see my other sister. We’ll stay over at her home on Saturday night and then return on Sunday. Monday is Family Day, so civic holiday for all of us. We’ll have a great time at my sister’s … she’s a great cook. Plans are to visit a Mennonite market and buy all the lovely fresh fruit, veggies, homemade pies and perhaps some beautiful handmade thing or another. (Of course, the Lego factory outlet just HAPPENS to be close by, so we’ll go there too!!)
I’m sure you’ll have a glorious time on the weekend. Eat, drink and dance merrily in the rain, my friend. Best birthday wishes to Dames.
Love,
