HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I used to have a life I couldn't talk about.
Today I have a life I love to talk about.

Coulda, shoulda, woulda. I have managed to not use these very much for a year now. I have replaced them with I DO. I do what has been suggested to me by those who have gone before me in recovery. Tonight I will put my head on my pillow and I will have been given all I need. I can't ask for more than that.

I could fill pages with reflections of the past year, but I just don't feel it's necessary. And I am not really in the mood to sit here and write. What I am in the mood for is to read a few pages of Augusten Burroughs and take a nap. Tonight I will have dinner with Jim and Randall, and later stop by Lambda for some sober celebrating, and more likely than not, I will be in bed before midnight.

Happy New Year to you and those you love. Sweet dreams...
