well we have said goodbye to another year. I have made plans to work on my anxiety issues this year. Learning to go with the flow and not spend too much time obsessing on things that are out of my hands will be first on my list of to do's. I believe that my higher power has a hand in all the areas of my life so, with that being said...."let go and let God" is my theme for 2007. I know he has brought me this far and he will continue to bring me through all life has to offer. Today, as i sit here at my computer, I think of all the people who are still suffering in addiction, and i am grateful that "just for today" i don't have to!!!

God bless all of us as we get ready to take on the new year!

love, sacha

Last night was not a good night for me. I began to feel overwhelmed by life, so much so that I started crying. I had surgery(hysterectomy) back in september of this year, so it doesn't take much to get me upset(you know hormone stuff). I have to say that my higher power is so awesome. This morning I woke up with this on my mind...."learn to live in the moment" What does that mean?" Well, for me, it means I need to start being grateful for where im at. It means that I need to appreciate all the beautiful blessing in my life and stop worrying about what i don't have.....I have; however, decided to go back to therapy just in case good old depression is trying to set in. Today i can see these things before they happen, that is what recovery has done for me

well, christmas has came and went...... This year my mother came to visit. I have not seen my mother in 6 years. For the most part things went well; however, some things never change. My mom tells me shes working on ex- husband # 7, and already has a boyfriend(who by the way is 22 years younger than her) gotta love my dysfunctional family. In my recovery i have learned that i am a slow processer so that being said, this visit has brought back a lot of old memories. so hello step 4.......lol. I know i can only be accountable for my behavior so at this point i say the serenity prayer a lot. since my mother doesn't understand that confrontation isn't always a bad thing, i decided not to do too much of it for the sake of my children. My mom is a bit over dramatic so with her its best to let sleeping dogs lie.....but i have an awesome support group and my best friend in recovery came over after she left and helped me through it....gotta love friends in the program...
