Ever had a blessing in disguise? My Mom was all set for me to go back to my house, but my Daddy said , "...She's safer with us...". The next day we go to pay for my lights, and come to find I'm a day late to pay for reconnection. Of course, I was upset...but not my "normal" upset where I cry. My Mom said, "Shall we call this a blessing in disguise?"
On Monday, the 9th (my bday), I get a call from my family Doctor. See I thought I might have been pregnant, but turns out I have VERY low thyroid levels. So, I have been struggling with that issue. I go back the 19th for a follow-up. To me it's enough to make me stay clean.
Today, I'm feeling pretty good about myself and about life. I was going to visit my boyfriend, but I have no way of going. I'm upset, but I actually feel like I can handle the issue without "making a scene".
Hey Jennifer ! yes remember the joy you can feel when not active.When it gets rough(and it will cause thats life)bring these feelings to the front.Happy birthday,wish you many more 'CLEAN AND SERENE"!

Hey, Jen! Great to ~see~ you again! I dunno bout you, but my HP sometimes likes to be fairly subtle. On the one hand, Im sorry bout you not going home n having thyroid trouble, on the other hand, the one sounds like a ~God Thing~, and knowing your thyroid is outta whack certainly explains a lot of the weepiness. (Although I cried non-stop for the first few months getting clean! LOL!)
Hang in there!

I may not be 'All That', but I'm always on my mind!
Last night I think I got the best birthday present life could offer right me right now. My Dad, whom I haven't spoke with in 7yrs, found me. He said he has been looking all over for me, and when he say my name on a certain website he couldn't have been happier. We talked for about an hour last night and he's going to call me again tonight. I have 2 sisters and 2 brothers I haven't seen since they were babies.
I am glad "something" prevented from going back home, because if I had gone back home this opportunity would have gone right on by.
So, today I know I am not alone in this world and I am most grasciouly grateful for family.
