Just a quick post for a change. Thanksgiving was nice. Very small, but nice. I am not ashamed to say I have been in my pajamas for two days now, studying, and grazing on Thanksgiving leftovers. I will be taking a shower and getting dressed here in the next little bit. We are going shopping.
I think my husband has a bit of a family hangover. I know he loves the family that was here, but sometimes their prescence amplifies the abscence of his youngest brother and his father, both of whom have passed. He was very close to both of them. He seems better today, but the last 24 hours have been difficult. It has taken me many years to just let him go through what he has to go through and not constantly ask, "What's wrong?", "Are you mad at me?" It is not about me. The 12 steps taught me that.
I reached out to someone in AA yesterday and today she returned my call. We ae going to have a chat later, she was on her way to a meeting, but wanted to return my call, so very nice. I am so blessed to have so many people in my life that love me and care about me. Some of them even "get" me! Bonus!
Now I must get back to my studies. Test on Monday will be one more down and three to go in the next two weeks...then break.
Thanks so much to all of you who have been praying for me. I can really feel it. Acceptance is returning to my heart and along with it, peace and love. I have been praying also.
I linked on one my followers blogs this morning. If you ever want a nice positive place to stop and visit, stop by here. It is a nice place to visit and take in the sights and sounds.
Have a great rest of your weekend everybody and thanks for stopping by.
