I went to a great AA meeting this morning where a man celebrated 5 years of continuous sobriety.
After that, I drove to a nice trail and ran 5 miles. It was a dreary, overcast, drizzly morning. This is very unusual weather for Colorado and it is nice for a change... but not on a regular basis.
I stopped at Barnes and Noble on the way home and bought myself a new copy of Atlas Shrugged. Yeah, really.
I came home and slept for 2 hours. On a cold spring afternoon, it was pretty nice to just go to bed and sleep. Next week I will take off the flannel sheets, but for now, I am glad they are still there.
When I woke up, I got dressed and ready and went to church.
Came home, ate a steak and baked potato dinner. Then I wrote for 2 hours.
Now I am going to go to bed.
This may not sound like a lot, but it is. It is happy stuff.

It sounds like heaven to me.
I had a great day too. I'm glad you had a fine day.
Me too. Great day. I forget what I did, but I was busy all day. And, I didn't drink! Oh, yeah, got to take an old returnee to a couple meetings and breakfast.
Peace!
Mary, you did us AA bloggers proud with your "story" on The Second Road (TSR). Well-written, and so truly from the heart. Thank you.

That sounds like a near-perfect day for you.
i spent the day with my son... was a good one for me too :-)
True confession: I've never read Atlas Shrugged - pretended I did, but never read it...
You're an inspiration to me...
Thank you...
