INTO EACH LIFE THEIR IS SUN SHINE AND RAIN
Mood:  bright
Topic: staying sober
The rain in my live, I seem to remember better then I do the sunshine .It's a character defect. I've work on it all my sobriety especially in time when life is not going well . I forget all the sunshine in my life. The sun shine in this picture is my son girl friends grandchild (She is a very young grandmother.). That I treat like she was my grand baby.. This child has had 3 open heart surgery . She is a miracle to be here and just look at her smile. When I feel like life has given me more then I can handle.. I try and find something that make me smile . She does !

Father Martin
Mood:  happy
Topic: staying sober
I just read a blog which reminded me of something that happened to me 29years ago ..I was about 1yr sober at the time and a catholic priest was going to speak in the area ..Everyone was going to see him for it was said he really helped a lot ..I was new and did what my sponsor said so she and I was off to hear him speak .. I have to say as a speaker he was one of the best .He touched my heart .. There was a party after at one of our AA friends home and he came . I remember him sitting next to me and tell me if I let go and let God the every thing would be OK .. Things at the time were pretty bad ... Did things get better?? Yes and no but what I will say is that every step of the way my higher power was there and I stayed sober

I love when I find a solution
Mood:  happy
Topic: staying sober
If you say to God "God grant me the serenity to except the thing I can not change and change the things I can .. I should know that there would be a solution ..Maybe not what I thought it would be but it would be a solution as he see it .. Here is his solution to putting a counter on the page ..It also uses the old links I had for the old page I love it ...
Front Page for Sober on the Beach

Confused
Mood:  not sure
Topic: staying sober
I have another web site on Tirpod that I have complete control over how it looks Hey Yo a Tribute to Scott Hall..If I want to add a pic here or there I can but on this blog I am limited to what I can do or maybe I should say I haven"t figure out how to change it yet. The source code does look like htlm when I pull off the web put in the advance changes it does not... I love to have control over my life and when I don't it frustrate me.. In truth we never have control over anything it is an illusion I know but it is an illusion that make me feel secure .. I know in reality that MY HIGHER POWER is the only one that is in control and not me ....But some time I still like the illusion... So today I am say God grant me serenity and turn this over to God

Late Saturday Nite
Mood:  hug me
Topic: staying sober
It is late Saturday night and I have just spent the whole day with My grandson Cody . He is the only child of my daughter and unless she adopt one he will be her one and only. He is a great joy to me even thou he is a boy who act like a 10yr old should,sometime loud, silly and very hyper .... He love to play video games just like his uncle does . My 36yr old son who says his only addictions are his games and his computer... Cody is alway asking me to call his uncle to find out what the latest cheat are for his newest game.
Today it was my turn to find those cheats so he can get threw the game....He like to make the game easier so he can do it without to much trouble.He has great eye and hand skills better then my son..(that come form him)but sometime the game frustrate him.... I sometimes would like to look up a cheat to make my life easier.I want to enter into some secret spot a six or seven letter code that would give me more money or less weight or what every it is I need that day..... Maybe the only cheat I have to let go and let God.....

This morning when I got up the wind was blowing so hard . I have always love the wind and it's power. It energy me.I don't know why but it does.It woke me in the middle of the night as if a big weather front had just come thew. It make me feel good inside. My beagle ( my dog Leroy) even feels it.. As he was walking his head was held high and his ears was just a blowing ..I love the feeling walking in it gives me . I love the way it wraps around my body it is wonderful ..But just like all good things too much of it makes our lives terrible ..A hurricane is a frightening event..Drinking like the wind made me feel good in the beginning but in the end it was like a hurricane with all it power of destruction

In AA we say you should live your life one day at a time ..I have found that in to every life comes the good the bad and the ugly ..It also seem to me that each and every day has a little good, bad, and ugly in it ..What is still more important is that if we take the good the bad and ugly as it comes.. We survive better with less ups and downs.. Like leaves that fall from a tree our higher power knows when they will hit the ground
