The perfectly fantastic part, to me, was not letting any of that outside stuff steal my serenity. The kids and I have had so much fun this weekend...slumber party with my son's best friend, baked cookies, did not burn dinner for a change, two trips to the pool, loads of fun at the park, where I shot hoops for the first time in years, and of course lots of singing, dancing and playing of the guitar.
It could have been so much different had I chose to sit in the seemingly bad. A quick call to my sponsor, reaching out to other suffering alcoholics, and getting into gratitude helped to change my perspective and allowed me to not miss being present for the two loves of my life. It works...it really does!!
