wednesdays

On Wednesdays there is a group of us girls who go out - we all  used to work together.  It is a fun group: one is getting married, one is getting divorced, one is wild & crazy and then there is me!  We have a lot of fun sharing stories of the previous week and then focus on whoever is needing to talk about something troubling them.  These past few weeks there has been a lot about me but for the first time it wasn't.  I mean occasionally the topic would come up about the bloodsucker but not like it used too.  I am 'getting there' and it feels so good.  My friends have noticed the change also.  It's nice to not be the one having drama!  I would prefer not having at all but I know it is a part of life but I am glad it is off of me right now.  Three out of the four of us are planning a trip to Florida for the wedding and we all can't wait. We decided tonight that even if there is no wedding - we are all still going!   I told them how much I am enjoying my leave and how I would have never taken a leave before d/t my mental breakdowns but I really should have.  This was God's way of getting my attention.  I told God today that I appreciate this time off and I really do.  I can just be away from the drama at work, et al and just enjoy life.  Wow, I have another week to go imagine how I will feel by then!  I won't be able to stand myself!
