well...I got thumped...er- nudged. I guess it has been a while since I've posted. I don't even know what to say..
I'm still sober! I picked up a 90 day chip a couple weeks ago. It was a long time coming and one of the best choices I could have made for my life. I wasn't completely honest with myself about how much drinking had affected my life. I knew it was getting in the way...but now that I've got some clarity, I can see how it had me pinned down. Most people in my life weren't privvy to this info..I was really good at hiding it and hiding in general. Anyway..sobriety is good and I'm really grateful to be able to see the difference.
I did an intensive weekend thing a month or so ago called the Landmark Forum. You can check out their curriculum at landmarkeducation.com. I know it doesn't speak to everyone but the timing was perfect for me. It's taught me some really valuable stuff about creating my own vision for myself, living with integrity, letting go of baggage from the past and staying present. I'm following up on this Landmark education by taking a 10 week seminar on Integrity that started this week and another intensive weekend workshop in July.
I'm still living at my sister's house. It's working out pretty good as a temporary situation. I've created a space for myself in the upstairs 'bonus room' that feels okay. There's no door but the kids have been better about respecting my privacy. I love getting to see them every day. The twins turned 11 on Mother's Day. It's so awesome to get to be a part of and to see the growth that happens daily. It's good to be around my sister too. It's a little different too. She was usually my drinking buddy. She's still drinking..
Guess that's all for now..s'okay for you, Seth?
