It's just Monday morning, I'm just having oatmeal for breakfast, and I am just going to work. There is nothing going on (that I am aware of - yet - anyway). There might well have been a sentence in the big book that said "lack of drama, that was our dilemma." But there isn't. I have learned that lack of drama is a good thing. It took a while though.
In my drinking days, I thought life ought to be like a soap opera - where something exciting happens every single day. I was good at creating that excitement. Which made for a pretty unhappy life.
It took a while to learn that sometimes there is nothing much going on. And I am good with that.
Sometimes it's just oatmeal.
Think I will stay sober today anyway (by the Grace of God), and I hope you all do too.

Great reminder, I still want life to be that way sometimes, though I know that drama free moments are the better ones
I had oatmeal for breakfast too.
I like those oatmeal days myself.
And now I will go make oatmeal (instant) :op
have an awesome day, and I hope your oatmeal is full of bright lucious fruity bits! :)
Sometimes I don't appreciate the oatmeal days in my life, and I really should. Thank you for reminding me.
I like oatmeal days, too. It took several years in the program before I felt comfortable with oatmeal.
