It has been one year since I switched jobs.  Still in the same company but I have weekends and holidays off.

The work on my bathroom is progressing along nicely.

My son, as I love him more than life itself.

My pets.

Good and honest workers.

A beautiful day.  Not as warm down near the lake but still wonderful.

Good food.

Learning that I can lived in a cramped space if I need to.

Having a working computer to use to type this. :)

The beautiful lake walk I can take the 5 blocks home from the store.

Having a job to go back to.  Although I would love more time off, I know I need to go back.  I have had three plus weeks off this summer and it was much needed but I am a long way from retirement.

God and my sobriety. 

About Karen Teig

I am a 58 year old Native Minnesotan. I work as a Storekeeper at a local hospital here in town. I have been sober since April 18, 1982 and have not smoked since September 8, 2005. I am a Born Again Christian who loves Jesus and am grateful for each day I wake up. I have found that even in the hard times, like after my husband's suicide that I can still find things to be grateful for, even if they are little things. God always has my back.

  1. When you realize you can live in less space, you will appreciate when you can spread out again.
    Back to work. Sigh! I work today too.
