      K9 thanks so much for sharing that. I've reading your posts for a while and you make it look so easy,, and some days i think ' well, this is easy peesy! And then other days (like Saturday ) I think WTF...

      It's dumb of me to think that everyone here isn't struggling in their own way. Thanks for the reminder!

      So just got back from the counselor for Matt and there may light at the end of the tunnel. Both my husband and I really liked her. It was a good intake. She seems to have a good handle on these types of children Matt may turn out to be ADHD instead of ODD which makes my initial approach to him all wrong. But I feel like we have a plan in place now. We can move forward with professional help and I am not alone in this nightmare any more and importantly neither is my baby...

      Thanks for all the support here as usual.
      Off to vacuum, walk the dog and pick up the kids!

      Hugs,

      I dont know if its "dumb" to think that way. I do however think we all fall prey to looking at others, and thinking how easy "they" have it.

      My guess is almost anyone on this board.......no matter how long sober.....has the occasional dance with the devil's temptations. I know I do

              RC - I'm pretty down about that thread. Frustrating. Friends that don't feel comfortable to post. Really bothers me that people make these comments that hurt other people so bad. Pretty sad state of affairs.

                Well Nora at first I thought that thread was just one persons atempt to verbalise their own struggles with maintaining sobriety and how hard it all is and blah blah bu boy did that just turn in into one big shit storm.

                Still, I really do believe that no post here goes unwasted. I do. I've had some of 'those' R/T thoughts tonight (rum and Tonic) but went right over to that things I hate about drinking...Then I go to the stories and yey, I even looked some at that thread. It's a little like a car accident. You know it's a mess but you can't help yourself!
                Anyway, The good the bad and the ugly i need to see it all- some times many times because it is clear I have a real slow learning curve!


                RC Congrats on your Daughters nuptials! How wonderful.

                Today went better. Matt actually made a good choice in school today and one of the deans called to tell me about it. That was a nice suprise. Will fill in later. Madison is glaring at me! Needs to talk.

                Hugs to all, Night,

                          Morning Steppers,

                          IAD, always good to see you. Thanks for the daily check-in. A smile is a good way to start the day.

                          Pro, Hi. Sorry you are still struggling with life's cr@p but glad you are lurking and continuing to try. You are always welcome here.

                          A hot one today and for the next few. Whew. Us GRITS know how to deal with it, though. On the up side, I am meeting my girl and her children this morning. She and her daughter want to get pedicures before going to the beach on vacation. I get to watch the two little ones. :H:H

                          Hope all have a good day and step through each day carefully.

                          Love,
                          Cindi

                            Morning all!!!

                            Glad to have you all here. Went home yesterday and both kids were in tears within 30 seconds of me being home. :upset: Typical bickering siblings. So, I sat with my arms around each of them until they finally cheered up. This morning they are busy setting up our above ground pool so that will be good.

                            How's everyone doing? I'm feeling down and don't know what's wrong with me. Everything is going great. Absolutely great. So - what's my problem??????? I do know that I tend to let the negativity get to me. Guess I need to brush it off and focus on the happiness.
