A Warm Spring Day


Yay! It will be our first weekend over 70F for the first time in six months (or more).  Today was in the high 60s.  Took Dan and Lea out to lunch at Spud’s Fish & Chips on Greenlake followed by a walk along the NE corner of Greenlake.

Lea has ten days clean from heroin thanks being able to get methadone from a local clinic here in Bellevue.  She has to go 6 days a week to her dose.  They are closed on Sundays and give her a “carry” dose on Saturdays.

Picked up Greg at the Greyhound Station in Seattle last night.  He rode from Houston to Seattle in almost 3 days.  It was good to see him again.

Gave Leslee a ride to the airport this afternoon.  She is flying to LA to see both of her sons and then drive to Utah with Roger from a couple days of skiing and camping.  Bon Voyage!  Leslee flys more on a lower income than anyone else I know—by far and away.  It is impressive how much time she gets to spend with her sons on outdoor getaways.

Drug addiction has had a huge toll in my life and those of my friends in recovery.  It sucks that we have had so many problems.  It is a miracle that today we are alive and in recovery improving our lives.

I am grateful for warm sunny spring days along with the love and support of my friends in recovery.
