The past few weeks

Published February 4th, 2006 in Autobiographical

ParkAvenueHouse … have been spent working on the new house. I closed this past Monday and have been spending evenings and weekends purchasing furniture, arranging for utilities, meeting with an accountant, etc. It’s all happening so fast. I am truly grateful for this opportunity. My family had suggested that I make a list of things I needed to purchase, so I did, and the list has almost all been donated by extended family. It’s been wonderful. I plan on getting back to blogging on a more regular basis just as soon as the house gets settled. I am aiming to open up by Feb 12. Many thanks to everyone who’s helped out.

Hi Dan … congratulations on the new project / house. I know its going to be a lot of hard work but something tells me that you’re definitely going to get a hell of a lot out of this.

Great news for you. I think that it is wonderful that you are immersing yourself in this project. I think that, like others have said, you will gain an incredible amount of insight and strength from this. In addition, you will be providing a much needed social service.

Kudos, kiddo!

Welcome to the terrible twos! Actually, it was a lot of fun, now that I think back on it… this is about the time that you find out the more you think you know, the more you realize you DON’T know! –and it’s okay.

Hey Mate,

I think what you’re doing is really impressive. I’d no idea that so many recovering alcoholics were in blog land! They’re stories are so insightful and honest…

Best of luck with it all,
Cheers
