Days Awake

It's a brand new day.  I'm wide awake at 2:00 but before then I'm fast asleep.  I'm talking with my new sponsor Cheryl via email, trying to sort out the details of expectations and such.  We almost have it worked out.  I suspect that will come shortly.  I'm excited to be back in AA where I can experience the freedom of sobriety and the love, support and honesty of people who know me and love me anyway.  That's the beauty of 12 step groups.  Authentic love.

For some reason I'm feeling lots of anxiety.  I'm going over to Pam's.  Heaven help her, please.  And He did.  I get quite chatty when the anxiety and panic get going.  Thank goodness there's a pill for that.  We laugh about it but it's really unnerving.  She's such a good listener.  Of course she can't get a word in edge wise but she's very patient and I'm sure if she had a baseball bat she'd give me a good whack just to put me out of my misery!!  That's what friends are for, right???

I took that handy little pill and Pam found movie number 3 1/2 for us to watch.  It was Days of Thunder.  Perfect for a wide awake person.  I was up all night and couldn't find any good movies to watch.  Doesn't matter.  The cats and Mr. Rabbit kept me company.

Oh yeah, I passed another kidney stone.  What else is new?  Nuttin.

God Bless you on this fine Tuesday.

Love Amy
