I'm paying off my business loans(if it freaking kills me!) Teaching parolees and working with addicts who wanted to kick my ass ended up taking a toll on my courage/health/enthusiasm-got myself laid off. I moved back with Mom n Dad to save money and focus on getting healthy and whole. I am recovering from a 15 yr marriage/trainwreck to a rageaholic/control freak. Determineed to not let my self destructive compulsive behaviors dictate my life... my family has had multiple tragic losses of lifes in the past couple years..also, I had to get a restrainig order against a stalker on the worship team with me at church!...got alot on my plate! my addictions are approval(codependency!), spending, hoarding, denying all of it, PTSD, sabotage! I'm a codependent workaholic(3 previous generations of em on both sides!) There ya have it!
Like
winning, justice being served, giving gifts, getting nature all over me, people who live authentically, leading worship, being my own boss, and teaching!- who KNEW?!
Dislike
being falsely accused, people rolling their eyes at me, allowing my fear to paralyze me, liars, fakers, cheaters, mean people
The light of HP surrounds us. The love of HP enfolds us. The power of HP protects us. The Presence of HP watches over us. Wherever we are, our HP is and all is well.
It's always with excitement that I wake up in the morning wondering what my intuition will toss up to me like gifts from the sea. I work with it and rely upon it. It's my partner. -- Jonas Salk

When someone asks me to sponsor them, it is an honor and a privilege. Little do they know, that they are sponsoring me. This is about the therapeutic value of one person helping another. Sponsorship is a two way street. Having a relationship with your sponsor is the only way to learn to live your life, that you know nothing about. A sponsor is only as good as your ability to use him/her. If you don't call your sponsor, you don't have a sponsor.
Dear Friends in Recovery, I am so glad to be back on our site. I have been with my dear sister who passed away on June 16th. She had a long struggle with cancer. But thanks to a wonderful program I was able to be with her the whole way. Thank God for A.A. and our new mind. Terry
