I have missed Live Journal so much. Been doing the Facebook thing for some time but there is just something about Live Journal that I love. I have missed everyone and can't wait to catch up on your lives. ((hugs))

I sponsor 9 women in Narcotics Anonymous, work full time, have a husband, go to a treatment center to take meetings to the clients and attend NA meetings in my hometown. Needless to say, I am completely overwhelmed sometimes. I have a tendency to caretake everyone else in my life and completely forget about me. My sponsor gets on me about this all ( Read more... )

Hello my friends! I have promised myself that I am going to start journaling on a regular basis again because it is so therapeutic to me. I am doing well but am in a weird place right now and I need to just talk. I just wanted to say hello and I will actually be doing the deal with my journaling. My sponsor will be so proud!

I have been away from LiveJournal for far too long! Just wanted to say hello to my friends who are still here. I have missed you all!

I have been online everyday and reading livejournal everyday but have not felt like updating my journal. Why? Not sure. I have just been in a weird place, very busy with sponsees and other people in recovery not to mention the people in my life that are not in recovery. I think I am exhausted. Hell, I know I am exhausted. Almost to the point ( Read more... )

I read the following entry on Live Journal last week and it just jumped off the screen at me. I so relate to this and wanted to save it so I can read it again ( Read more... )

I was in my homegroup meeting last night and someone shared something that was so profound to me at that moment, I can't believe I didn't high five him in the meeting. He was talking about not coming to many meetings. He said , "Ya know...sometimes it's just easier to sit at the house than to have to face the truth about yourself." Holy shit! I ( Read more... )
