    One Step at a Time - July 2012

    Thanks, friends. I just hate how this stuff sneaks up on me, just when I begin to feel safe. It started when I took a swallow of my husband's wine in the restaurant. He wasn't happy with the wine, so I took a couple more swallows. That was enough to get my alkie brain going, that I HAD to have more when I got home. But I learned what can happen if I take even a sip in a controlled environment.

        I know that I wouldn't have. And that right there is my problem.

          It is a shared battle for all of us, each at our own level.

              Good morning everyone,

              I just wanted to chime in about wanting to get away from everyone and everything. Feel like that all the time, I guess all we can do is ride it out and wait for the feeling to go away. Hope it goes away soon Nora.

                  Hello everyone, yes I often feel like getting away from everything, I suppose it's just the human condition.. Glad your back on track Sun, it's frightening how the drink can creep up so unexpectedly. Saw my doctor today re. my blood results, everything ok, apart from showing signs of inflammation, which is due to arthritis. So relieved that my liver function was normal, when I was drinking that was my biggest fear, that my liver would be damaged.

                    Morning everyone.

                    Glad you got smashed Mama & that it's ok. :l

                    Allswell - so great to see you. :h

                    I agree with you all that it's just normal to feel like running away. Sometimes I just don't want to be the grown up anymore. :H But, actually, I'm doing ok.

                    Mama - I've been crocheting or reading lately to relax. It's nice.

                      Paula - glad your blood results were pretty good.

                      When my Dad was deathly ill. We thought we were going to lose him....he had a liver infection. They had to remove part of his liver. (He had an unknown infection - he was alcoholic but this was not caused by alcohol) I swore that I would never drink again. Well - obviously I didn't stick with that. I sometimes wonder how I could ever have started drinking after seeing such tragedy in that ICU Waiting room. So many families - so much grief.

                              Oh Mama - I have to wear my glasses all the time now. I feel like Burgess Meredith on that Twilight Zone episode. Rememeber that one?
