Thursday

Active addiction set us apart from society, isolating us. Fear was at the core of that alienation. We believed that if we let others get to know us, they would only find out how terribly flawed we were. Rejection would be only a short step away. When we come to our first NA meeting, we are usually impressed by the familiarity and friendliness we see other recovering addicts share. We, too, can quickly become a part of this fellowship, if we allow ourselves to. One way to start is by tagging along to the local coffee shop after the meeting. ~NA Just for Today

Up really early today so DS and I can head out for Marble Falls, TX. It's 45 miles northwest of Austin (about a 3 1/2 hour trip total). We will be installing a client's vacation condominium--furniture and art work. Then drive back this afternoon/evening. It's gonna be a long day, but we will be creating some fucking beauty! More later...
