Al-anon evening
Got up this morning at 10:00 and had therapy on the phone at 11:00. That was good. My therapist is thinking of retiring. Which would leave me with a new therapist I assume. Not sure I like that idea.
My pension money came as scheduled so I paid my rent and the first payment to the credit card company for Oldest Brother's service.
I ate breakfast and had coffee, then puttered around for awhile before having a shower and dressing. My copy of Written on the Dark arrived and I put it in my suitcase. However, annoyingly, something that I knew was supposed to arrive, a card from Miri S (I have the mail preview thing that the post office provides set up, so I know it should have arrived) didn't. It looks like she forgot my apartment number. I Facebooked her to thank her anyway and let her know in case it got sent back to her.
I hung a picture, the wizard cat that the Kid gave me, with the Command hooks I got, and I also hung the ornament from the Mother's Day card the Kid got me. I have a couple more pictures to hang but these hooks won't be strong enough for them.
I did a tiny amount of cleaning in the living room, just enough to be able to say I did, as I'm going back to the pledge I made to do some cleaning every day.
Aside from that I mostly puttered around until 5:00 when I went into the Bronx for my Al-anon meeting. I left early because I walked to the bank before I went to my usual dinner at the pizzeria. I missed a bus and thought I would have to wait a long time for the next one, but it came very quickly and was almost empty. Go figure.
The meeting was good, and afterward I got a ride to the bus stop with K. It had started raining a little, but wasn't when I got home so that's good.
Came home and Teamed the FWiB. We talked for almost an hour, which was nice.
Then I fed the pets and started here.
Gratitude List:
1. The FWiB.
2. Got those things hung.
3. My meetings and the people there.
4. Paid the rent.
5. Didn't get caught in heavy rain.
6. Pizza.
