Magical March Madness - Week 3
Good TGIFriday Evening Marching Mates,
What a long week....glad it's over now. Time to relax. Um...NOT. Must gather all my stuff together for a visit with my tax lady tomorrow. I think I'll end up owing....AGAIN. Then I'm off early Sunday for Michigan.
Sunni
...great to see you here. I'm sorry about Sophie:l. My sister and I both used to be competitive horsewomen, and we absolutely love horses. My niece has an Icelandic pony....and my sister had two older horses that she had to put down. My sister NEVER cries....unless it's the death of one of her horses....or her goats. She grieved for a very long time when her last horse died. Sending you lots of hugs. Sunni, did I ever tell you that I am half Canadian? My mother's grandparents were from Quebec. I chuckled when you asked about flapjacks....yes, they are pancakes.
Dill-I, too loved the geese story. Thank you for sharing it with us.
A big hello to Raven and Daisy.:welcome:
Chill-I realized a few days ago that I never offered my condolences on the death of your friend due to AL. I am so sorry. How heartbreaking.....it so could have been prevented. I am glad that you were her friend. She couldn't have asked for a better friend than you.
Cyn-I loved the description of your flowers. I hope you find your frog. Like Jolie, I love fresh flowers, but so expensive.
Star-your words about why you do not miss AL are so powerful, and I could not agree more. The waking up every hour with a relentless thirst that gallons of water and lemon could not soothe.
SD-sending you positive vibes on the job interview. Go for it, woman! I'll be in your corner.
Blonde-congratulations again on your 30 days.
Lav-are you going to have a babysitting free weekend?
Rustop-gosh, I hope you have good weather over the weekend. I must admit that when I was in England, I was really disappointed to find the weather to be overcast and/or rainy most of the time. Is it the same in Ireland?
I have a lot to be grateful for today. I have been thinking quite a bit, that ironically enough, when my drinking was at its worst, my business was growing by leaps and bounds, so I could just push my growing affair with AL aside until I "had time to deal with it."
It was easy for me to say to my family...."why are you so worried about me?? I just won another award for my work." I won awards DESPITE drinking. It did not enhance my productivity. It made everything a struggle for me...destroyed my motivation, killed my spirit, made me fat and sad, and made it twice as hard for me to get those awards, because at least twice a week, I was working with a hangover. UGH! No, AL will not help me accomplish anything today...or any day.
A cheery hello to Papmom, LBH, Shelley, Sooty....where are you?.....MyLife....ok, I'm missing someone.....happy AF Friday night!
