Well, today I have officially reached 1 Year of being sober from alcohol. Honestly, I didn't feel any more special or different. Just another day to me. I guess I just think differently than everyone else about the situation. It's not like, I'm NOT proud of myself because I am but, everyday that I don't drink is kind of a win. And the honest truth is that I don't want to drink and I never think about it. When I say God truly healed me from alcoholism, HE DID. That's one reason why you'll never hear me call myself an alcoholic. I never needed therapy and I never needed AA meetings to stop drinking. Once I decided I was done, I WAS DONE. And with God's love and arms around me this past year has meant everything to me.

For the past "almost ONE year" of being sober, it has been on my mind lately about bartenders and "HOW" much they will actually keep serving alcohol to their customers who are already intoxicated. You might find this one interesting.

Last night I suffered greatly by insomnia, which cause a panic attack, so I thought it would be fun to write about insomnia tonight.

I hope that everyone had an amazing fourth of July vacation. I know I did!

This summer I've been super busy with my grandchildren just trying to make sure they have the best summer ever when they are at my house either staying the night or just staying for the day while mom and dad works. I got paid my very first check from my Amazon book sales! All I could think about was going to the store and buying the grandkids 2 pop up tents so we could have a camping night in my living room. I didn't get paid a lot from my sales, but it was worth every dime to spend on my little ones! I can surely say that camping night was a huge success. I had 3 of my 4 grandkids overnight on Monday. We had so much fun that the kids swam, we made smores, popcorn and camped out on my living room floor in their new pop-up tents! What a true blessing.
