Day 788

Good afternoon!  My name is lauren, and I'm a grateful, recovering alcoholic/addict.  I saw this quote and laughed a little, but it's kinda true.  If I don't keep myself busy, I will get into trouble.  Idle hands are the Devil's workshop. When I start thinking too much, I can also get myself into trouble.  But that't when I know I can pray.  I can also call my sponsor, or talk to my husband, or call a friend.  I am not alone.  Sometimes I have to remind myself of that. Sometimes I also have too many irons in the fire too, trying to keep myself busy...writing books and blogs, photography, working, being involved in AA, all while being a mom and wife.  Sometimes I think I'm going crazy, but on the other hand, it's called having a life.  Before all I did was work, sleep, and drink or use.  Today keeping busy helps keep me clean and sober.  I like that.  :)  Don't forget to check out my store.  Also I have a photography website now too!  www.laurenyoderphotography.com.  But to purchase anything, it will bring you back here.  But please check it out!  Thanks!  That's all for today!  Have a great one!
