About This Blog

My blog shares my recovery journey from childhood abuse to living with mental illness. I've been involved in twelve step groups and therapy since 1982. I accepted Jesus as my Savior in 1988. To the best of my ability, I have followed where He wants me to go and what He wants me to do. Maybe you'll find the hope and strength you need through what I write. Maybe you want to stop hurting yourself. Maybe you have a friend who needs help and can benefit from my story. I was newly disabled when I asked God this question: "What do you want me to do with my life?" I closed my eyes and paused for a few moments to still my mind. This is what I sensed from Him: "Amy, I want you to write your story to bring hope and healing to those who are still suffering." And that's exactly what I am doing!

Fun Time With Me

Enjoying some much needed quiet time.  I continue to guard my exposure to positive things only.  I'm finding some rest is well needed.

Went to my AA meeting, grocery shopping, completed some chores and identified a water leak around the edges of my window air conditioner.  So grateful for recovery friends who can fix that kind of repair easily.

It's time to watch the series, "The Killing," which is not what it sounds like.  It's about a single mom detective who sees her cases through to the end which is also one of her pitfalls.  No famous actors.  I'm already on Season Two.  

Time for popcorn and some episodes.

A date with myself.

Hope you are giving yourself some of your time today.....

Know what I mean??
