Bohemian

Max is 26 and we celebrated tonight at The Bohemian Brewery

I picked up Morgen and gave him a ride on the way

Sam had her last day at Nordstrom today and Markus was caddy for his cousin who is a golfer

My mom choked on her stroganoff and I did the Heimlich on her 

Martin helped me when my Mom choked on her dinner 

Morgen - Max - Preslee - Sam - Markus

Martin - me - Kate - Monet - Grandpa - Grandma

 

New Appointments

Martin’s new home office 

 Now that Divy left for Malaysia for two weeks with his mom, Martin is working on moving his desk and computer into Divy’s old room. 

While I received the appeal that I was seeking today as well. I have learned so much in working as a nurse and one of the greatest things is that nurses are the #1 most trusted professions. I’m proud to be a nurse and celebrate my 7th anniversary of working at Huntsman. 

Second Act

On my day off today

I went for my annual check up

 Where I learned that I’m pretty healthy for my age and that I could take hormone replacement for menopausal symptoms.

I also went to dinner with Martin for one of the physicists that is moving. We had some yummy food at the Copper Onion. I have not been there before but I had been next door to the copper sister restaurant. 

No Worries

Today…

I will recognize that worries can be potent

Even mind altering

So I choose not to indulge in them at all

 I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship. - Louisa May Alcott

Not Perfect

Good Enough

Markus must be getting ready to play hockey again

Sometimes the healthiest thing I can do for myself is to admit that I’m not perfect. 

 I am human. Mistakes and all I’m good enough. 

Magnificence

Inner Beauty

 When I walked in to the Al-Anon family group tonight I saw this room with the door open that I hadn’t ever noticed before…

This weekly meeting has shown me that if I face the effects of addiction by working the “steps” I’ll see the truth I’ve avoided is my own inner beauty. 

I’m powerless to change the fact that Morgen’s addiction has affected my life. Only a power greater than myself can overcome the effects of this disease. 

When I risk taking a closer look at myself it can help my fears give way to the truth. 

Tonight I took some time to strengthen my relationship with my higher power. Bringing me closer to seeing the truth as my ally. And recognizing my own inner loveliness. 

“I now choose to rise above my personality problems to recognize the magnificence of my being. I am totally willing to learn to love myself.” - Louise L. Hay

Good things happen
