hope and love

I heard this read the other day on the radio driving back to WV. I could have written it but didn't. They said at the end of it that her daughter is in rehab today. She is very blessed to have a mother who found her way to love instead of blame. Altho she doesn't mention Alanon, she sure uses the language of the heart I've learned in the rooms. Thank God there is a program of recovery for the family and friends---so I could love and eventually let go.

On the homefront, we still don't have water here in the townhouse. Harold and the neighbor are working on it. He's pretty determined to do his best to make it happen today. I am so grateful he asked the nrighbor for help.

Supposed to be icy mix here tomorrow so I might not get back here tomorrow.

Happy Valentine's Day. Or Anti Valentine's Day. Which ever you prefer.
I wish for you love.

hAAppy Valentines dAAy!!!!

No water, ick. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.

I really love how you wrote about finding the love rather than finding blame. That is so insightful, and offers healing to both people (and for the family too).

Love you! Big-Ole-Mauhs and Hugs to you!!!
