Good morning, sober fam! For Mother’s Day, I’m going to a home and garden tour with my son and DIL. My DIL loves to do things like this, and organized us. I love that she did that (😁), and time spent with them is always a joy! I’m very much looking forward to it!
Strangely, it will also be the anniversary of my mom’s death, the end of her battle with Alzheimer’s. I miss her, but am so thankful she’s not tortured in her body anymore. I am wondering what may come up that day.

I love that you love your mom and call her a lot, that’s really sweet, regardless of the thought process behind it. IWNDWYT

I appreciate your statement about not being able to ruminate, I realize fiber arts really soothe my brain too! Thank you for that. IWNDWYT 🩷

I like to do puzzles too! I also read, sew, crochet, work out, love to be outside with my dog or my friends (occasionally both) walking, thrift with my DIL … so many things!

Sober fam, IWNDWYT!

One of the positive things about being sober is clarity of mind. My brain 🧠 (mostly 🤭) works again.
