I have had an amazing week. From Sunday to Wednesday my husband and I camped on our own. It was such an intimate and freeing few days with him. We did lots of couple stuff including biking, beaching, lots of ice cream eating, sitting around talking, walking and resting. It's been a long time since we have enjoyed each other without distractions and it was just what we needed.

All too soon he had to go back to work but one of my dearest BFF's Gail came up on Wednesday and stayed until Friday. She is a program person for the past 18 months and I am her sponsor. It was a time for her to spend time doing her 4th and 5th step and it was such a meaningful time for us both. Some people you just have that connection with and we have it. I know we will be friends forever. She has made tremendous growth in the past 6 months especially and I'm so proud of her. Really looking at yourself and wading through the wreckage of your past is emotional and takes courage but, the rewards are so great. We ate more ice cream and went on the motorcycle and I got bitten by the bug. I am seriously thinking of selling the trailer and getting a motorcycle.

When we came back on Friday the A.A. conference started and I was "all in" for that . I was a great three day conference and I left it on a spiritual high. Saw many people I haven't seen in a while. We went to a meeting Monday and 20 year medallion on Tuesday and my own group on Wednesday. I think in 6 days I attended 10 meetings! On Tuesday I went to a job interview and on Wednesday I was offered the job. Life is full of surprises and I'm happy to be on the path I am.
