My AA sobriety date is 8 3 90, in Al-Anon since 2017. My kids and loved ones and clients are all queer brown disabled and stuff. Resist. LCSW, NC, a pit bull calls me ma. Not giving away my peace and joy, just for today. #RecoveryPosse
#RecoveryPosse a new friend!!!
It’s hard to believe that I’m 18 days away from being one year sober on the 29th of December. Thank you god 🙏 #RecoveryPosse

It took 3 calls to the pharmacy and 4 calls to the vet to get Boo's prozac refilled... bc the vet let his prescriber id lapse...?

Boo has so many questions.

We are still #sober.

Going to get some more fancy thumb bandaids while i pick that up.

Worked out this morning, cheered me up no end. The dumbbell i dropped on my injured thumb opened it up again. 🫣 Did not text pix to friends 🙃 No signs of infection.

Without that thumb i can wrap 6 presents per hour.

Should do the ones for mailing off first. Did not.

Happy #sober day friends🙏♥️

Been missing y'all. Chilly few weeks in NC.😡 Stopped chopping veg for my coconut curry beans when I mandoline'd my right thumb. 🤪 Stopped bleeding within an hour so i didn't bug my neighbor the nurse or my best friend for a ride to urgent care. Bathroom looks like a slasher film. Happy and #sober 🙏

I really don’t like it when folks badtalk AA because of bits and out of context pieces they have heard. Or they had a bad experience with a family member going in and out of the program.

But, the thing is. (Especially when the science community misrepresents things) it can kill people.

FWIW

I started just recently to put details into my journal that normally I would leave out:

Latino/a
Chinese
Mexican
Autistic
Bipolar
etc.

I do this to put them back into the conversation and hopefully people's understandings/hearts

34 people killed in 50 days. Their guilt or innocence unknown, for an alleged crime that doesn't carry a death sentence. That's a lot of death.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

There was a rocking chair with horns at the thrift store yesterday.

Learned a new acronym*: pause action until sanity emerges = PAUSE.

*in my #AA meeting, not in the thrift store.

Happy #sober Saturday, friends.

Got to see Elvis Costello!!!!! 71 going so strong, just lovely ♥️♥️♥️

Kinda making my bucket list up as i go along: there's a thing-I'll regret not doing it-let's go.

Also doing things i missed out on as a blackout drunk = healing.

Went apartment hunting with 21💞, found a place he likes, then tried out all the mattresses at Macy's. 🙃

My kids are doing the things I've talked myself out of, like moving to san francisco and buying a new mattress. 💪 Wonder what's next.

Wanting to read & share good news for a change.

Traded cars for a while w my friend who's having a #sciatica flare, he is thrilled about not having to shift, seat warmer, & the key that pops out like a switchblade (which he thinks is cool. Unrelated to sciatica.😅)

So, something we tried worked.🙏

Got jabbed for COVID and the flu!!! 🙌🙌🙌

Chose to tell them i qualify because I have mental health issues, which is true, but that's a weird thing to have to do to get a shot. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Needed to read this book about loving and grieving a mother who was indifferent and harmful at times.

The author is in #recovery 🙏🙏🙏♥️
