I am so grateful to be sober today. I’m grateful for fresh sheets, a new comforter and the fluffiest new pillows. I'm grateful for little moments where God is so present. I'm grateful to be learning that other peoples anxiety doesn’t have to be my anxiety and I’m grateful to know that I am not alone.
Good morning my friends and happy Monday! Here’s to a fresh week and I hope everyone enjoyed the weekend while you read our lovely Randall’s story featuring the half-beast moose. This definitely was NOT the point of the story but I’m sorry Randall…..you had me rolling on the floor laughing with this line for at least five minutes
I used to joke that my life was like a country song: “My girlfriend’s gone, my dog is dead and I don’t know who I miss worse.”
If you guys haven’t read, I as always, really think you should ;)
On another note, I'm sitting here writing under said new comforter and sheets and I genuinely don’t know how I’m going to get up. I feel like I’m at a hotel. I’m already riving with anxiety about the possibility of being late to work…but these sheets man…they make an interesting argument on nooo don’t worry you’ll be fine.
My anxiety has been out of control lately and last night I was arguing with someone at around 8pm when a humongous animal flew in the terrace door trying to kill us (it was a bee). Eventually the threat was terminated and the argument had deescalated. You guys know I’m huge on signs from God but I was not having that bee until, it was pointed out to me that God sent that bee in, not to kill us, but to deescalate and because of that bee (gift from God? Bee’s are supposed to be asleep or something at 8pm, no?) we were able to have a real conversation, without raised voices and so much anger.
I also picked up a penny over the weekend and it made me think of our very own Randall, and reminded me that I'm on the right path, just following the breadcrumbs.
I guess my point for today is that there signs everywhere, and you can almost miss them if you aren't paying close attention. So I hope everyone finds the sign they need today and in the meantime, I'll be back with you guys on Thursday :)
With so much love,
Jane
