        Thanks Kradle! That is her "What is wrong with my mother?" expression. I see that one a lot.

        Yes, lets see your dog...I'm sure he/she is much less annoying. HA

              Our dog waits until we both change out of "office" into play clothes, then he jumps up, hugs, and talks to us. And he POUTS, major, if we don't have this episode each night when we come home.

                Just caught up with all the horrific experiences you are going through Kradle. It's indescribable, to say the least. You have been loved, hugged and comforted here by those awesome posters and friends and for that i am grateful. You have always been there for me and as usual, I buggered off for a few weeks when you needed the most understanding and empathy.

                Take it one day at a time; that's the only intelligent thing i can think of to say. You are so expressive, strong and eloquent in your writing that I can actually feel your pain and disillusionment. Some religious zealots can be completely out of this world with their statements and accusations (my Dad is one).

                I'll try to stay closer to the boards even though I am completely floundering in my attempts to get control of my alcohol intake.

                By the way, WTF has happened on MWO. There seems to be a huge infiltration of nonesense and craziness on the boards. Is this being addressed by the moderators???

                    Hi my Dear Tipp, :h

                    You know..you're still here...you're still encouraging, still generous and loving. This for me is the forward face of our journey, full stop. Thank you for your loving words I do need to hear them as much as I can. Keeping me grounded, centered:l

                    This does suck with my friend..ex friend. It's been incredibly painful but while I did cave Monday night after getting...what, 5 disjointed texts ranging from, loved seeing your girls' I have so much to apologize for...to why did you take my kids to that PAGAN holiday thing...ie an Easter Hunt egg hunt :wow:and Bella threw up because she ate to much birthday cake and candy....??? F***k Oh Dear...like that's never happened before! :upset:

                    But since then I truly haven't wanted to drink. I think because I am terrified that these kinds of people I have let into my life, all my fricken life                    ...they have been so dysfunctional, so hurtful and toxic to me that if I continue to drink, I stand a very good chance of just continuing to attract this type of person...no matter how 'normal' or loving they are at first, they will ultimately crumble underneath me and chip away more of my self esteem, my soul and now of course my children are involved...this is the HUGE GAME CHANGER!!

                    K9's signature line sinks a perfect shot: Love your children more than AL...if it were simply myself involved, I'm not so certain I would be so adamant in staying clear of AL... :boxer:

                    I'm tempted to write those texts here and my response. Not a spewing knd of thing i swear or to Elicit sympathy but simply as another blunt portrait as to why I have to stop doing this to myself...and maybe someone will be comforted that they are not alone.

                    After all it's all the ties and relationships we have to the other humans in our orbit that get ripped apart, IMO :sighbubble:

                    Richard came home finally last night so we got to speak about it all this morning. He kept trying to hug me but I do not want to be touched. I don't really want to be comforted. I did this. I let her into my family. I let her into my heart and head. I knew she was a mess underneath her big,. Loving, funny facade. I saw it getting worse and worse especially since I have been here with all of you, my guides, my experience. I just ...stayed...what can I say??

                      The Kradle Will Not Fall...

                      Kradle, I think I need to stop this train right about here: "I did this. I let her into my family." (BHOG pulls em stop cable, train comes to a sudden, complete, shuddering stop. Conductor is doing a car-to-car search for BHOG. BHOG pulls on a wig.)

                      You did NOT send the 5 texts. You did not change your religion. You did not give up on becoming AL-free.

                      i think is it common, for those of us who have been addictted to AL, to take the blame as a natural event. We have been told, and have told ourseleves, that we are the problem for so long, we believe it. Even when the problem is NOT us, as in this case, we automatically pick up the blame card and play it. As if it were our duty.

                      Repeating myself: You did NOT send the 5 texts. You did not change your religion. You did not give up on becoming AL-free.

                      (Conductor enters car BHOG is in. BHOG ducks into bathroom for change of clothes, after releasing EM brake cable)

                      Just my 2 cents worth, Kradle. See how many words 2 cents will buy you today?

                        I know you're right Mr. B. :sulk:

                        It's just terribly hard to keep that in perspective. :l.

                        Well Spring Break is over as of tonight and I think that I can say without a doubt this was my worst ever.... I'm trying not to shut down in my head, horribilize everything. Never really understood the whole one day at a time thing..like we had another choice or something. But it's a bit clearer to me as I do really try not to fatal prey to all the negative swill I just know I can high dive into....

                          New beginnings: Spring is a time of renewal and there's no better time to sweep the cobwebs of self-loathing from our lives and let in the clean air and sunshine. The Kradle ROCKS!! Keep journaling and inspiring us all with your attitude towards adversity and nutcases!! But do not go to the self-blame place, Kradle. That will be so counter-productive to your self-nurturning and we need to be good to ourselves if we are to recover from our destructive habits.

                            Good Morning Kradle!
                            I'm at work, waiting to hear how you are today.
                            And Tip, if quitting were easy, everyone would quit. It's not easy, but the fact you want to control AL is a great sign. You can do this, we are here to help.
                            And Kradle, as I am in the office, no tassles today.

                              Well, I would love to report all quiet on The pacific North Western front but ...Alas....I am at the Dr's office with one twin who had wretched her neck badly and just got a call form the school that the other twin is in the nurses office throwing up....of course now that I have no friends left, I have no one to call to help me...

                              I guess that's what 911 is for...wonder if anyone would mind if I called them....

                              Guess I will be asking my husband to drive all the way back home....This sober stuff sucks...

                                Well, waiting in the exam room...Madison's sleeping finally on the padded bench here. She's so adorable and it is soup setting to see her in that kind of pain. I think everyone has had a wrentched neck at one time or another. She slept last night curled up withe dog on one side and her sister on the other...packed in like the poor as my mom used to say...
