BHcare program at Shelton church to remember those lost to addiction

Recuperation journey: Sending prayers

Sending prayers and positive thoughts to the residents of Florida, southern Georgia, South Carolina, and everyone unlucky enough to be in the path of Hurricane Irma.

I can't imagine what they will be going through later today as Irma makes landfall.

I'm up early watching the TV coverage. Thank you, anti-rejection meds, for all the tossing and turning fun I've been having lately. 
It's about 5:45 a.m. as I write this, but I'm thankful all I'm dealing with is insomnia.

Being home, and not in a shelter with thousands of other people awaiting the brunt of a Category 3 or 4 hurricane, is something for which I am grateful.
