I am so, so very grateful for my on-line Al-Anon friend, Kenny. He and I have been exchanging e-mails about relationship issues since my telephone is out. Monday was the funniest exchange. He would rapidly fire back a succession of e-mails as he broke down my first exchange. We must have sent 20 messages back and forth in 30 minutes time. Yesterday he was a little slower. I suspect he was in a more reflective mood. At any rate I've found another mirror.

The air conditioner here has gone kaput. I think an electric surge knocked it out the other day. It's a brand new air conditioner! !@#$% It could not come at a worse time for me. I'm either going through hot flashes or getting sick because even in air conditioning that works I'm hot. I'm banking that I'm getting sick. I've been exposed to too many who are sick.

The RCIA classes will begin next Wednesday. That works out better for me than beginning this week. I was pushing it to get over to the church.

I did something highly unethical today and totally out of character for me. I hope I won't reap the whirl wind because of it but if I do I will take complete responsibility for my actions. I will not say what it was that I did but I will say that I would not have done it if I'd had any other options. Just wish my conscience didn't bother me so much.
