My Thoughts: when the mood strikes.

Interesting Weekend 10-7-18

I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself tonight. 

It's about 12:06 am and I'm in Altamonte Springs, Florida at an Al-Anon Convention.  My roommate is sound asleep; I am wide awake. 

The day was not without obstacles and pitfalls.  I'd like to get alone with God, but the pool area is locked at 11:00 pm---likely for safety reasons.  It would have been nice to have been able to sit outside for awhile.  This is definitely not a resort hotel.

My kitty-cats are home alone, and I wish I was there. 

Tomorrow afternoon, I will drive home.  This is a required event I attend twice a year, and there is another similar program event I attend twice per year---for my elected service position.  I also attend monthly District meetings in Pinellas County.  Two more years and things will start getting back to normal----at least I won't be compelled to attend these weekend events.  I thought about quitting, but heard God distinctly say, "Finish what you started." 

I was a bit cranky as the afternoon progressed today---though I maintained composure except for a few unnecessary comments.

One of the ladies here has been a nemesis this weekend----not completely her fault, but she is definitely a component since I tend to over-think things.

I'm going to say good-night...  Just wish I could sleep or at least go outside and spend time with God.
