Monday's Final Summary

Well I had a productive day to say the least - the last two weeks to month have been unbelievable for me between volunteering, school and just getting out again its been great!

Kenny fixed my water problem but I didnt realize there is a valve to adjust the water temp - loaded up my hair with leave in conditioner for 20 minutes then realized water not warm enough for shower. So i called gram to let her know I'm coming to take shower - she has no Cold water!!! So I finally got Tasha went there and took shower then had my counselor at noon in Fall River.

Even she was amazed at how good I am doing...so then I ran a few errands, came home - held two interviews for house cleaner/dog sitter for my Colorado trip. Then did some homework, played with my Wii fit and went to Celebrate Recovery at my church from 7pm - 9::30pm.

I did more homework and finally got to bed around midnight. I woke up around two for almost an hour now I'm up at 6am and just staying up because I have court in Newport this morning to have my record expunged.

I'll write more as the day goes on - time to let the dogs out :)

Good Reading...thought provoking

There are things that we never want to let go of, people we never want to
leave behind. But keep in mind that letting go isn’t the end of the
world, it’s the beginning of a new life.

Preparation For Things To Come
by Alison Stormwolf

There are still some races to run
For a noisy spirit untied my feet
Hog tied from years of crying
And my eyes once sharp as eagles
Now see with new softer light
Into the shadows that would take me

There is still a sun in the sky
Though it is setting through
Such beautiful autumn leaves
Yet is my spirit still reviving
Laughing and crying at the shedding of
Worn out greenery,
Softly exposing…
Naked branches, naked thoughts
How many more seasons
Will I see
With these eyes?

A few more valleys to travel
A few more journeys...
Come close now, my helpers
For I am not finished yet
Though there is a new weariness...

Like reading the same old story for too long
Come, help me turn the page
Hibernation calls me, to regenerate
All that is in me
For A Terrible Winter is coming to Earth
And there will be much
To be done.
