A little rundown with business despite a runny nose which has become a sore throat and heavy chest. Today I got to walk to the busstop and to lunch break versus drive.  Dad offered his car.  Mine stalled on fwy on the way to the city to visit an old aquaintance who comes to town from Austrailia every few years.  I was happy he'd kept in touch.  It was nice to be out amonst the living early, tending to just be in the car and not among others first thing in the day.  The time change helped to get me up at an earlier hour but still at my usual time, which is nice to be productive early in the day. Car stalled on the fway and I just edged over and coasted off the onramp and ended up on a street where I called a tow truck.  Now to deal with the finances and if repairing the car is going to be worth it since it's old and I don't have much money.  At least I can still get to work. My MA commitment did not go untended to, mom drove me and attended with me!  Wow that is growth for me, to discuss my addiction openly with her.  It was a good meeting and she enjoyed it.  She's been isolated so it was good for her to hear some recovering people share.  I'm glad it worked out.
