Tonight,I am feeling pretty good.I had a pretty good day today.
The work day went by smoothly.There were no messes to clean up when I did the laundry pick-up and since yesterday was a holiday,there was no laundry left behind in the washers.I simply did what I had to do and when I was finished,I simply bagged everything and dropped it off at the drug/alcohol rehab center.
When I got home,I had some issues with my computer.I wanted to get my personal PC work done but couldn't get connected.After several restarts,I finally managed to get online and do my personal work.As a result of this,I was almost late for my SSA Recovery meeting tonight but I managed to make it there after I shut down my computer before I left for the meeting.
The meeting went by great.I had gotten a little bit more out of it than I had in previous meetings.We all shared our feelings and our thoughts with each other and it was very uplifting and rewarding.I also shared some of what I wrote for the homework with the men there and it was wonderful to hear some affirming words and compliments.I am looking forward to the next meeting next week.We have two more meetings and I am looking forward to both of them.
On the way home,I turned onto a street where a supermarket was because I had to use their bathroom before heading back home.When I turned onto there,I was almost in an accident.A silver 4-door Pontiac streaked across the street as I was coming straight and I had to slam on the breaks to avoid crashing into that car.I was angry when that happened but mostly,I was very shook up.I drove into the supermarket very slowly but was careful not to collide with another car.I went in to use their restroom because I needed to go really bad because I knew that I wouldn't have been able to hold onto the load that I had to let go.After going,I drove home and made sure that I was obeying the speed limits as I was driving.I was still nervous after that almost accident but I made it home safe abd sound but still,a little shaken.I am hoping that a good night's sleep will help me recover.
Tomorrow is simply a pick-up day.I hope that the pick-up goes smoothly.I also have an appointment with my sexual abuse support counselor in the afternoon and I am hoping that the session with her goes well.
That was my day today and my hopes for the day ahead.FJ
