SallyRose Musings: February 2011
http://sallyrosemusings.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 7, 2011. I sit here and look back at the landscape traveled. For me, it is nothing less than awesome. To go from where I was to where I am now could not have been accomplished. All you had to do was ask me - I would have been more than glad to inform you - "You can't get there from here! And although Here very much resembles There on the outside, there really is no comparison on the inside. And that is the part that matters the most, I find. The first 'real' post was about a bird in a pl...

SallyRose Musings: December 2009
http://sallyrosemusings.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. Only once before have I truly felt like I had a clean slate. That was the day I was baptized in the Spirit. But with 2010 breathing down my neck, I find that each new day is, in fact, a clean slate to do with as I wish. That gives me comfort and helps me to overcome the mistakes of all the yesterdays I have had to regret. Well, you know and I know I didn't HAVE to. But I'm human and I do stuff like that. Washy attitudes do more harm than that. I learned valuable lessons back ...

SallyRose Musings: May 2011
http://sallyrosemusings.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, May 10, 2011. I just don't get it. What's all the brouhaha about? Prince William got married. Whoop-dee-doo! I hadn't noticed. You see, I'm over here in Whoville polishing my own crown. Oh, I may not live in a palace and have servants at my command. Nor will I ever see the flash of cameras in my face due to my notoriety. And the fairy tale? It's a fairy tale. Where are the cameras for the kids down the street who just got married? I see you roll your eyes. What do I know anyway? When I was conce...

SallyRose Musings: June 2011
http://sallyrosemusings.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 25, 2011. My First Year on Facebook. A year ago today I was sitting at the kitchen table where I was boarding with a pair of sisters. I had just been told for the second times in as many months that I needed to find another place to live. Although it was actually raining inside my apartment and the ceiling had fallen in leaving a huge six-foot by four-foot hole, it wasn't long after my arrival in South Carolina that I knew I had made a dreadful mistake. Hindsight is always 20/20. I felt ha...

SallyRose Musings: December 2010
http://sallyrosemusings.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 31, 2010. Twenty-five years ago when I was just a year sober, I had the opportunity to be at Red Donovan's house. Oh, he's not famous or anything like that. But in Alcoholics Anonymous circles he was quite the guy. Flagstone fireplace which stretched from floor to ceiling. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.". It was very appropriately called the Last House on the Left meeting. It was one of only a few houses on the whole road....

Can You Hear Me, God?: September 2010
http://canyouhearmegod.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 29, 2010. Good Evening, God. I've been thinking a lot lately, but then you know that. Sitting with Grace does that. And it never ceases to amaze me how the mind works. I was just outside on the porch. It was raining. Then I could hear the rain coming down a little harder. There seemed to be a rhythm to it. I thought, "No, it's just your imagination." But I wasn't entirely convinced that it was imaginary. And then the thought generator kicked in so I became consumed by the process.

Monday, May 31, 2010. I Cry Out to You. This field looks so peaceful and serene, God. It's hard to believe there is hardship and strife throughout the world. On this day of remembrance my heart cries out to you. I see things sometimes and wonder, "What was God thinking? Sometimes I smile at your creativity. Other times I am saddened. Today is a sad day. Could you have foreseen all that has occurred? I suppose that is about the dumbest question ever asked. Of course you knew. How could you not? And so we ...

Can You Hear Me, God?: A New Friend
http://canyouhearmegod.blogspot.com/2011/05/new-friend.html
Tuesday, May 31, 2011. What a great day, God. You gave me a new friend. It's like finding out there is still some apple pie left. No wait! It's like knowing you have minutes left on your phone. Naw, it's like discovering all your outgoing letters have the postage already paid. I'm so bad at this, huh? OK it's like all that times the square root of the speed of light to the 10th power. plus! I guess I'm excited. How great thou art! Posted by Your Loving Child. At Tuesday, May 31, 2011. How great thou art.

Friday, June 25, 2010. I look back over my shoulder and feel as though I am walking into the darkness. I rely on all those old sayings I have heard over the years. The one that comes to. Mind is, "Feelings are feelings, feelings aren't facts.". Just for you, Bebe, haha) I feel like I am going to a dark place, it doesn't necessarily make it so. I am a person with choices. And those choices are the power I can draw on when the darkness seems to be closing in. Oh, I can let it happen all right! Back and for...
