A quick list 4 today . . .
Tonight is the Eve of my natal B-Day. I took the day off of work and decided to take tomorrow off as well. I have been working on my portfolio, content to be home, enjoying having my animals around. I am pooped, just came back from Boot Camp -- I gave it my all, I was mentally there. I will ice my knee and eat Baja Fresh with no guilt about how many calories I am putting into my body. I feel wonderful.
I am ever so thAAnkful & grAAteful:
- for the small World of Recovery. My dear sober sister is Alice is discovering love. Her new love, I discovered, has 25 years in the program, is a professor at one of the colleges Mitch teaches at and is a dear friend of one of my biggest artistic mentors, C. Heinz.
- that I accept how God painted my body -- which my Boot Camp instructor complimented and called me a cookie face tonight.
- that I will have God in my life as I enter my 30s
- that my sponsor and her hubby sat next to me this weekend at Sunrise and I just love to see her smile. She smiles during the entire meeting, she is so darn cute!
- talking to my Mom on the phone today and hearing her voice
- all the sleep I got this weekend and my nap today
- that Mitch & I appreciate nature and spent the morning yesterday at the Hunington Park. Take a look at the beautiful pictures!
Our trip to the Hunington
I am sleepy and need to listen to my body. Good Night Yall, see you 2-mollies ;)

Happy Birthday Beautiful!!!
Bootcamp looks very engaging - I can see why you are exhausted. You mentioned that you are working on your portfolio - what kind of art? Is this photography or something else?
I am waiting for your photos to finish downloading - can't wait to see them.
Enjoy your special day soberchick and take good care of yourself. Lots of love is being sent your way.
Hi - it's me again. Those photographs are breathtaking. I love the floating pic... A print of that would be amazing to look at. Great job. I want to go look at them again now.
:) Thanks for sharing such amazing views of your day.
Happy Birthday to you! (Sung very badly)( on purpose to make you smile!)
You are beautiful Mitch a hunk for sure and thank you so much for the wonder-ful pics. Wow you have so much talent.
great photos! are you a photographer? you mentioned a portfolio.... happy happy birthday!!! that's really wonderful about your sister!
You all crack me up. I love reading your comments. Right now I have a BIG OLE SMILE on my face. What a wonderful feeling.
I am in the stepping stones of my career as a multi-media designer. My focus has shifted. I am building on my web-based knowledge. So my portfolio is mixed with mostly print (ads, brochures, some packaging) I will have the site ready soon. :)
In school we were taught to use our own artwork/photos for the media we built hence my love to taking pictures, espicially of our 4 legged monters.
Ok, I love you all and will see you in cyber ;) Thanks 4 all of your greetings. It truly means so much ti me.
Ummm..ok..
I am just going to go dig up my backyard and transform it in to
Huntington Park...be back later !

Belated Happy Birthday, Sober Chick! Thanks for sharing your lovely post and pictures. I hope you had a fabulous birthday.
Happy B day...
Dear Sober Chick,
First of all, I would like to say thank you for all of your posts! You are truly an inspiration! Second, I noticed that you were/are also bulimic. How did you stop the binge/purge cycle? I have been sober (alcoholic) for three years, but can't seem to break the horrific eating disorder addiction. Any advice would be GREATLY appreciated. I need help, desperately.
Hi Anonymous,
Wow I wish I could contact you somehow so i can share a little of my story and fight towards the bulimia. If you are up to it, you can email at soberchick@mac.com
I promise to keep all anonymous -- i know how haunting the obsession with food can be.
I hope to heaar from you, thank you for the kind words.
