Thank you (((friends))) for your kind words and support. I worked evenings yesterday and my next shift is evenings on Sunday. There is a lot of walking in this job and for that I am grateful as winter is coming, and walking outside when it’s cold is not my idea of fun, unless it’s in a tropical country. I am working as a program assistant at a not for profit agency, on a casual basis. I am hoping that I will at some point get a fulltime position when one becomes available. This job fits me to a T as I get to interact with other staff and agency clients. I really needed to get working so that I wouldn’t be lonely and bored which are triggers to me. I am appreciative that I now have a job, even if it’s just casual. It would have been exhausting physically and mentally had I had to step into a fulltime job at my age. This way I ease back into working fulltime. Tomorrow I am attending the Fabulous 50’s which is a ladies event. So for today I can say that everything in my life is where it should be. I am tired today though I will admit. I hope I can find the motivation to get a few groceries. Weight loss efforts are going well. I’m estimating that I have lost 10 pounds over the past almost month. I have worn makeup three times this week as well as jewellery, which is something I have not done for many years. I’m grateful for the friends I have here on GT, and for this recovery site. Carole
