If we waste time and energy talking about past injustices or old mistakes, we are unwittingly calling them back into our lives. We are bringing back garbage that should have been discarded permanently to make room for better things. ~Walk in Dry Places

Today I am grateful...
- that I can say Happy Birthday Piglet! (She's on my side bar)
- that Zane celebrated 17 years as one of the 34 alcoholics celebrating four hundred and ___ ___ years of sobriety last night
- that I got to sit and giggle with Dave
- to hear a retread celebrating one year that when he came back he didn't share how he had stayed sober in the past, or that he had worked whatever step, or that he had this vast knowledge of the program of Alcoholics Anonymous--he could only share that he didn't know how to stay sober.
- that I had a blow out at Texas Art Supply yesterday spending all of my AT&T Visa gift card I got as a reward for switching to U-Verse on canvases

Good stuff!
I went to a speaker's meeting last night and heard "The only requirement for membership (for active alcoholism) is a desire to keep drinking."

Warm smiles, deep gratitude, quiet nods.

Yep, all I got is TODAY, and because of blogs like yours, I'm helped to remember that.
Thanks.
Always enjoy Fr. Leo. And it was 35 with 452 years. She added one at 18 years right after she said 34
with 434 years. It was still a great evening. And I had all my clothes on up there on that stage.
I love both of the quotes that you shared day, especially the first. That is a very good reminder for me, at a timely moment in my life. Thank You:)
Retread--that's a good description. I'll go over and say hi to Zane.
