silver_chipmunkWoke up early for me, planned to get up, and fell back asleep again til fairly late.
Got up for breakfast and coffee, and puttered on the computer. Calledmashfanficchick and hd a nice conversation with zer.
Puttered around some more and finally at around 3ish I went and showered and dressed. That took me to a bit before 4, and I called an Uber and went to the nursing home to see Oldest Brother.
He is pretty good, we had a nice time, and I stayed til 5. Then I Ubered to the bus stop for the 50 bus and went into the Bronx for my Al-anon meeting.
Had pizza first for dinner, and then walked to the bank for money.
Then I went to my meeting. It was just starting to rain as we went in. Sometime during the first meeting it stormed heavily, and poured, and the basement where we meet got flooded by rain running in the door and down the stairs.
L and M mopped up, they didn't want me doing it for fear I would slip cause I'm still using the cane. Which made me feel a bit guilty. Anyway, L called the church and told them what happened, and then we had the second meeting.
Afterward, L drove me to the bus stop. I made the bus by 1 minute or so. But I did make it so I got home. The rain had stopped by then but it is super humid.
Got home and Skyped the FWiB. Had a nice time. Then I fed the pets, and now here I am.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Oldest Brother is well.
3. My meetings and the people there.
4. Cool drinks in the heat.
5. Going to read more of The House on the Cerulean Sea tonight.
6. My African violet is blooming.
