Good Day Ab-Landers!
Yesterday I grumped around and wasted a lot of time (stupidly) because I had to go to an evening business thing. I like my evenings hope to myself but I've got to find a way to stop letting the least disruption to what *I* want ruin my own day. How stupid is that? The function was at a small art gallery / studio in the old downtown area of my town. All the various artists were there with there little studios open so you could see their "work in progress" in addition to their finished stuff for sale. It was amazing - I had no idea that was even there about 5 minutes from my house! One woman who makes jewelry is starting up a jewelry class on Fridays that I might try to go to. Her stuff is really pretty and I'd LOVE to learn how to make even a simplistic version of the kind of jewelry she makes. She also uses jewelry making tools and supplies to decorate serving spoons and glasses and things like that - they look awesome. So who knows - maybe a new hobby is born. And to think I ruined my own day over it! This really is so much more about a "thinking" problem than a "drinking" problem sometimes. I was not even tempted to drink - not even a little bit. I'm thankful for that progress!
Yes Mary, and attitude of gratitude is SO much better. Makes for a better day not only for those around me, but for ME TOO!!
Hello Tiny and That Girl! Good to see you both yesterday.
Deter you are right - Al has no power as long as we leave him corked up in the bottle. Like "Genie" only with fangs and horns.
Well, I "slept in" until 5:30 this morning. :egad: I had hoped to already be done at Curves, but I'm getting a late start. That's OK. It's going to be a gorgeous day here - in the 60's and sunny! I will be found in my garden planting the little plants I bought (brocolli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, cabbage, onions) and a bunch of seeds (leaf lettuces, spinach, beets, turnips, carrots, some flowers, and I'm probably missing some). Whatever I don't get done today will hopefully get done tomorrow as it is supposed to be nice both days! YEAH!!
Have a wonderful day everyone and enjoy your AF-ness!
