This week held a little bit of everything: coming home from Alaska, Dale’s birthday, my mom’s first heavenly birthday, the funeral of a friend, the beginning of another school year and Miles’s last first day of school.
Oh, and I celebrated five years alcohol-free.
Five years ago, I thought quitting drinking meant giving something up. I couldn’t have known how much of my life I was about to get back.
In this episode of Love Monday, I’m talking about beginnings and endings, grief and celebration, kids growing up, people we love leaving us, and what it means to actually be present for all of it.
Being alcohol-free didn’t make my life easier.
It made me available for it.
And after a week like this one, I’m more grateful for that than ever.
