Telling what it's like to work on recovering from the effects of alcoholism through Al-Anon

Sun day
It's another glorious day on the boat. We woke up late and are having a good breakfast. We didn't eat the octopus so will make do with yogurt and an omelet.
We read about Bill and Lois this morning. This is a book that clearly describes the hell of alcoholism and how cunning, baffling and powerful it is. I suppose that most of us know that though.
After breakfast we'll walk on the beach and then sail up one of the nearby rivers to explore. It seems like a good day for new adventures. I hope that this day provides new opportunities for you.

Something seems right about Bill and Lois and Octopus. Maybe not.
ReplyDeleteBlessings and aloha...
Yogurt and an omelet - what a glorious meal to have on a boat out in nature. You describe a life - walking on the beach and sailing up nearby rivers - that sounds wonderful. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI visited with some old friends who recently moved here from Harker's Island NC. They miss the island life but love being back close to family friends again.
no comment on the octopus. i say one in real life when i was real real little and haven't been able to put my lips to it since. too darn ugly, heee heee heeee.
ReplyDeleteA fried calamari omelet just doesn't sound right, but the spicy Greek octopodi sounds delish!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo. Dear old heart dog.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm glad you didn't eat the octopus.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a nice day there.
Sounds like a good time was had.

Octopus?! Eww.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful image here by the way.
You and your dog :)

Are you reading My Name is Bill by Susan Cheaver?
ReplyDeleteThat book scared the hell out of me!! Here I had been thinking all these years that AA is some sort of salvation...what happens to Bill??? He becomes a sex addict, treats his wife like shit and begs for alcohol on his death bed.
Interesting read but it sort of depressed me....
