Like I said, it was a good session. Afterwards I went to a thrift store and mingled. I rearranged the VHS tapes like I often do. I do it when they are every which way. It's an OCD thing. Then I mossey'd along and found a couple of things.
The weather is so nice today. Feels like a fall day or a spring day. Very blessed to feel well enough to enjoy it. Came home to finish a little paperwork. Now I'm settling down to read a book.
Some days I'm amazed at how uncomplicated life can be. I'm so used to living in the crud. When days like this come along they stand out and my soul sings praises to my King.
I enjoyed a long conversation with the woman I love the most on this earth - my Mom. She'll be 71 years old on Monday. Five days later I'll be 47. This extraordinary woman has tolerated me through some sinful times in my messed up life. She's loved me through some of the most trying times, too. Today I consider her one of my greatest confidants. We share the gift of laughter, driving adventures and loving Jesus.
My mom started my journey in recovery. She introduced me to a loving God. She introduced me to my church - her church. She helped me find a personal relationship with Jesus. She's been my biggest cheerleader as I write my book. My Mom is my hero.
Today is a great day: My therapist, Faith. Guilt free shopping. Cool summer weather. A soul filled with praises. A long conversation with my hero.
It doesn't get any better than this.
