Today's thought from Hazelden is:
Support group friendships are special
Until we came into this support group we may have thought that friendships were all alike. We counted on friends to socialize and gossip with, maybe to share a secret with. But when we were really scared about our lives and the future, we felt too vulnerable to let anyone else know our innermost thoughts.
What relief this support group has brought us and what good friends! No problem seems as terrifying now that we are no longer shouldering it alone. Having to make a decision no longer overwhelms us when we have other people to discuss it with. Letting ourselves be deeply cared for, with all our faults, is a new experience too. All these gifts come automatically to us within the support group. All that is asked of us is that we be a friend too.
I will extend my heart in friendship today, and my concerns will be lightened.
Happy Holiday Season & much love to All...

I have to agree with you. It means so much to be able to "unload" to someone(s) who cares and especially someone(s) who undertands what I'm going through. Happy holidays to you, too!!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
