FRIDAY NIGHT, March 28, 2008

Desire is the beginning of all creation. It is first thought. It is a grand feeling within the soul. It is God, choosing what next to create. March 28, Meditation from Conversations with God, Book 1 page 65

THE SLUT PACK.
.
This week 4 members of the Slut Pack have been in the news, ad nauseum. Paris Hilton, Lindsey Lohan, Brittany Spears, and Amy Winehouse. The only one not mentioned recently is Paris's former best friend, Nicole Richie. I think the SLUT PACK really is a great name for these Bitches. For over a year, I have thought surely the media would tag them with a name of this type, but alas, they have not. And why they haven't is something that is not a quality problem for me, but it sure would add some humor to these boring bitches.
.
Yesterday was an under the weather type day for me. I just felt icky, not sick, not well, but icky. Headachey, nausea, and just feeling unwell physically. Today is better, not so much nausea, but still have an improved headache. That passed by mid afternoon and I decided to go see a Movie - Stop Loss. This movie was very moving, well done, and heart breaking in the personal costs to our troops. I actually shed some tears and had the old heart strings pulled. To me, it was not so much an anti or pro war movie, but a story of human suffering.
.
I love Friday Night TV. My favorite shows are on the tube. Countdown With Keith Olberman, Real Time with Bill Maher, McLaughlin Report, and Charlie Rose. I really enjoy these programs.
.
I talked to my sister, Rosalie today, and she scared the hell out of me by stating that they had planned to come over next weekend. OMG - my house will never pass one of their visits. My house is extremely cluttered. I still have the first piece of mail or the envelope I received after moving in 10-06-04. My kitchen is clean and both baths have been thoroughly cleaned within the last two weeks. But I would not want guests at this time. I do throw out the newspapers at least every two weeks. I save magazines, I have a stack here, a stack there, and some mixed in with several stacks of Important Papers that I have not gone through in 3.5 years. Sometimes I feel that my mind is as cluttered. Maybe, just maybe, my putting this out there might give me the much needed boost to "get er done." And maybe not. There is always tomorrow. Oh, Yes, back to Rosalie's upcoming visit. I was quite relieved when she said that they could not do that and why did I not come over for a visit. PHEW. So next Friday, I will be trotting over to Silsbee, Texas (126 Miles East). I look forward to the visit in their house. Besides I get to have some of her home cooked meals.

But today, NOW, I am a sober member of Alcoholics Anonymous. I may not be perfect, even a mess at times, but always a work in progress.
.
Today I am grateful for:
.
My higher power, God.
My Sobriety.
Dolly, My Schnauzer. (Always)
My sponsor whom I need to check in with for the week.
The insight I get from my fellow bloggers postings.
Confession being good for the soul.
.
Y'all be pretty NOW, ya heah!

I cannot tolerate much clutter. It drives me crazy.
