I am a sinner saved by grace and a parttime poet. I participate in Celebrate Recovery and have been sober since 04/09/2011. My wife and I are both retired. I love my life. I am truly blessed.

it's a chilly morning here, but at least the sum is out. kind of a silly statement since the sun is always out; we just can't see it directly sometimes. I'm feeling lazy. so far I've just been lying back in the recliner listening to cds. in about an hour-and-a-half I'm going to have to go to have lunch with faith up at the school. I'll buy food from johnnie k's. then i'll park in front of the school and she'll come out and we'll eat in the car. nothing at all planned for this afternoon. tonight I go to the friday night celebrate recovery meeting. mixed feelings there.

I'm not feeling very creative today...guess I'll go.

i've decided to go back to journaling.

i'm thinking of putting together another poetry manuscript. i've been reading over some of my poetry that wasn't included in ordinary things and i think i can whip it into shape without too much editing. i'd at least have a good sized chapbook.

it's quiet this morning. faith is still asleep and skippy is curled up on the love seat. the blinds are still closed so there's not that much light coming in. i wish i had plans for today. all my days are filled with sameness. it's a pleasant sameness, but it's a sameness nonetheless. but i'll take this dull sameness over th excitement of my acting out days every time.

i've got a fresh cup of coffee. i think i'll go stretch out in the recliner till faith gets up.
