myveryown_nemesisGood Evening, my Beautiful Friends!
I look out the window, and it appears to be glorious, but I know it is hot and muggy, so I shall stay inside and enjoy the air conditioning, because that is the type of person I am!
Today has been a rather full day. My husband had this two-week follow-up, and he is so thankful that his bandage has been removed! He is allowed to take showers without assistance, but he is not supposed to touch the incision. He is very, very, very, very happy! After his appointment, I reviewed our EOBs with out insurance to see if they have started the coordination of benefits with Medicare Part A (they were just rejecting EVERYTHING...my husband is still working, so he has Medicare Part A due to his age, but BC/BS Federal Employee Program for everything else), AND THEY HAVE!! I still had an email to send to one billing department explaining the situation, but I shouldn't have any more phone calls to make. I really hate the phone calls.
After that, I had a great therapy session, which didn't play out the way I expected it to at all. Most of my commentary was off-track, and there was a lot of laughter from both me and the therapist. I think I needed that. I will see her again next week. My assignment is to spend a little more time on self-care...particularly getting enough rest. So I'm probably going to go to bed early tonight.
I'm feeling strong in my sobriety and my food decisions, and am taking the spending decisions one day at a time, one decision at a time. I'm sure I'm annoying my husband when I tell him what I'm considering buying, what I've bought, and why, but I find hearing it out loud helps. Particularly the considering buying. Sometimes when you say it out loud, you realize that you aren't really buying things you need, but that you are buying things that you think will "fix" you. That's an important distinction to be aware of.
I hope all of you found something beautiful today, and as always, thank you for being here.

Oh...
I also decided that instead of using two tags, sobriety and life, I'm going to use "sober life" instead. Because that's what I'm building -- a sober life.
