Following our passions

One of the most crucial aspects of recovery is staying engaged and actually living life. We as addicts, myself included, cannot control our use of mind-altering substances; this however doesn’t mean we can’t thrive and live our lives to the fullest in an environment where drinking and using have become the social norm. I am [...]

Every Monday Jaywalker Lodge men go out into the beautiful mountains that surround us for a day of recreation. With spring comes the melting of snow, and with the melting of snow comes white water rafting. Today the Jaywalker men spent the day rafting the local white water rapids on the Roaring Fork River. We [...]

Habitat Restore

Part of our weekly schedule here at Solutions includes volunteering for Habitat Restore  www.restorecarbondale.com.  Restore is part of Habitat for Humanity but has a different function.  They collect furniture, building materials, appliances, and many other things that would normally go to the landfill.  They then refurbish if needed and sell the goods, like a high [...]

Giving is Getting

The school year is ending for many.  Students at the local boarding school, Colorado Rocky Mountain School, are preparing to travel to their homes all about the country. Some will be returning in the fall, others will be venturing off to colleges. All of them will be negotiating new minefields of drug and alcohol temptations [...]

Kitty's Garden

Kitty’s Garden, a memorial to my sister who passed away in 2009, is a simple gesture of gratitude for the gifts recovery has provided us all. It treats us to beauty shared, to flavors fresh and robust, and to the fragrance of peace and solitude. It is rebirth witnessed year in and year out, new [...]

Solutions Artistic Service Work

One of my favorite things about Solutions is our variety of activities and service work.  Today’s activity couldn’t be any more out of the ordinary.  We turned a normal SUV into a camouflaged beast with hoses stick out all over the place.  This was done through CPAC (Carbondale Public Arts Commission) and CCAH (Carbondale Council [...]

Happy Mother's Day

Holidays have become a gift in sobriety.  Welcomed by Jaywalker since the day I walked through the doors, I learned how patience, time, and recovery would heal the wreckage I reeked on my family.  Jaywalker showed me how to take action in my recovery; how to establish my sober identity and offer amends.   Today I [...]
