7/4/08 Happy 4th of July!!


Well of course we spent the 4th of July weekend at the Torrance Marriot at the AA Round UP.. partying with 4,000 of our closest friends.. My kiddos were celebrating with Grandma Lynne in Yosemite, so for the first time in 8 years I got to actually relax, go to meetings, have uninterrupted adult conversations, yeah it was strange but wonderful. There was an extra bit of celebrating going on since we did miss the round up for the first time last year, in the last 17 yrs, but mostly cause Steve and I are back together after some time apart and we are both very happy about it! New love, deep love, such gratitude, amazing appreciation, what can I say, totally a gift!

So yeah.. and Steve's new best friend in Colorado, Brian.. flew out for a week and hung out with us, we meditated, listened to Adya, went to a crazy amount of meetings, danced, heard some great music, laughed a lot, hugged a lot of friends, played at the beach, stayed sober, and celebrated life!

We also had a party at Lex's, her whole family was in town, totally fun, love hanging out with other peoples families, especially Jewish women from Florida, yeah we laugh a lot, hula hooping, poking fun.. it's all good!
