Trying to tie up the ends here, but they keep unravelling. Hubs is exhausted, I'm angry, still SO much to do.
I went through the house son has been living in, taking down things, boxing things up. He kept it very clean, but still needs work. I asked Gracie if her Daddy had mentioned he was moving. (The girls had decorated their own bedrooms in the house, I didn't touch them.) She said 'yes, momma went and started snatching things out right away.' OHHHHhhh, when do men grow up??? Maddie has moved on in her world, has great friends, gets invited on lots of trips (just got back from PCB, AGAIN!). Tay and Grace call on me much more, and I'm always here for them. Taking Grace to the cabin on the 23rd for the weekend. I'm babysitting daughter's kids so she and SIL can take a trip. Will be fun.
Cleaned out a drawer and found one of Jacks 'nukkies', a pacifier he couldn't live without when he was tiny. Made me sad.
If you don't have grands yet, or they are very young, let me tell you you want to stop the AL NOW! They are God's gift to us, again, so don't blow it!
Grateful, missing you. Where are you honey??

He's moving because we told him to. His ex-bitch leach tick wife is still sucking every dollar he gets, though HE won hands down in divorce court. I go ages not getting my hair done, buying new clothes, taking trips, and I walk in over there and SHE has redecorated, has a bunch of MY stuff. He's cost us a LOT of money living there, and I'll love him till I die, and beyond, but will not support insanity. My girls need and get my attention, but the adults will have to do things on their own. They had it made, blew it. My feeling is if you want to be an adult, then do it. Once they're out of school, not doing what they should to help themselves, I don't owe them. She's spent MY money, on her clothes and trappings, and tells everyone how horrible I am (while smoking pot!). Her girls see it now. But my son can't, even though we bought him new glasses.
Sorry again, but this is why I'm angry. Decisions have consequences, and throwing good money after bad NEVER works. Hubs and I work too hard to support someone we don't like. I have to be quiet, and strong, for the girls. And Hubs allowed him to move in without talking to me, so though I won't say it to him, it has turned out as I expected.
Until someone helps themselves, we are stymied in our attempts. NO MORE MONEY. She throws out or gives away everything, has a real mental problem, but it's not my call to help anymore. And I have too many other things on my plate.

Not with MY money, Tone!
I give till it hurts, if it helps someone. But when it's abused, I'm outta the picture.

Well, are we having a happy day? The electricity flickered earlier and blew out my network card AGAIN, but no worries, taken over Paul's computer. It never has problems, only mine. I'm so tired, I can't seem to wake up today and my sugar is running real high so I don't feel good at all. But I AM SO HAPPY! Okay now thi s is funny. My little dog, Chloe has jumped up into my 3' tall fountain to try to catch this lizard. She is so proud of herself when she catches one and is able to chase it around! And we thought we had it bad! Love you guys and hoping everyone is having a HAPPY day!, Vicki

SOS, I read about something you can have on hand to drink if you don't eat right, can't remember the name, but 'specially made for diabetics. You have to be proactive in your health, especially if you choose to drink occasionally. I'll find it, post it, but YOU have to drink it, OK?

Ok, I'm really still struggling here, but today is day one AF again.....I'm sick of being sick, letting AL rob me of joy everyday, make me feel bad in the morning, not being able to function like I want, and not feeling like working out, all the things I love and need to do. I'm tired of AL having control over me, not me over it. I'm pretty shaky today, I'm staying home trying to hydrate and relax and get past this feeling. I am taking the supp's and trying to stay focused. I know I'll feel much better tomorrow, and I'll get outta here and get my butt in gear. I still have the whole court case hanging over my head, my Atty. is going back to the DA again in a few weeks to try to plea bargain down their first "offer".....since I don't live here all the time, and still have to spend time in Texas and Baltimore for my cancer cks. They are soooooo hardcore here in Colorado, they don't have any proof of how much I'd had to drink, which was 2, and the atty thinks since I told them about my cancer issue, and told them I couldn't blow in the breath test, they by law, are supposed to immediately take me for a blood test, which they didn't. The only hope is because he didn't, and that's againist the written law, that there's a chance they can either throw it out, or at the least, neogiate to the best of their ability. Right now, they want to put me in some alternative jail for 5 nights, out during the day, then 20 dys of house arrest, out some during the day to survive, and community service, and AL classes, which could take forever to complete, and I don't live here consistently....I'm not dodging responsibility, and I know I made a mistake, and it caught up with me for the times I should've been busted, but it's scared me to death, and its really stressing me out so much. I have to overcome that, and I have to find peace inside somehow, and deal with all my problems the past 18mos, and loosing my bestest pal and dog Norman to boot....and hubby just left after nearly 3 wks here and I have 17 more days til I go back to Texas and are with him. I'm sorry to let so many of you down, I just can't seem to graduate from kindergarten. Please pray for me, and send good vibes, I've done this before, I gotta do it again! Gotta keep on keeping up the good fight. Thanks for letting me dump my stuff.....feel a bit better now. Love you each and everyone~! Got a new bulldog puppy, Teddy, he's a Teddy Bear, he's not Normie, but there'll never be another one of him anyway, female Tootsie is happy too.

Hi Tough - I am so pleased to see you posting here - I am sorry though to see you are still having trouble - this seems to have been going on for you FOR EVER! I am hardly surprised that you were drinking again - but congrats on day 1 again. It must be so stressful for you - when is it all going to be over - these things seem to take forever. I suppose it doesn't help that it is all taking place in 2 states either. Anyway, hang here with us - vent all you like. You will be in our prayers - I feel for you. Pleased that you got a new puppy - they always help! Take care and feel free to come here whenever you want to - love and hugs to you.

love, Sun xx
