Do what you can, Joy will follow

Life continues, along with many others our finances have been changed due to circumstances out of our control. Today is our 13th Wedding Anniversary. I am coming up on the 15th annivesary of the incident in Ukraine that led to my current period of sobriety. The Joy in my life continues to be in the moment...right here right now.

I am very very close to graduation! All my papers are written, to be turned in this coming week. Finals the following week. Doing what I can, putting one foot in front of the other. I survived Chemestry. My timing could not have been better. The State college system is collapsing fast! Tution has gone up 79% since I started in '06. More money, fewer classes. The enforced furloughs played havoc this semester, knocking out class time on top of the holiday.

I realized today that I am seriously planted in the transition to LaLa Land. Most of August will be spent there and knowing John a fair amount of my possessions will be relocated there as well.

Wednesday will be the 13th anniversary of my last drink.
