    The Kradle Will Not Fall...

    Well after months and months (since last May) with 30 days here, 60 days there, 15 and 3 days everywhere, I simply must get a hold of my big picture.

    It's still incredible to me that so many of the failures in my life were obviously due to Alcohol. I had a vague notion of it but nothing concrete.
    Can't believe I missed that. uch:

    Then I find MWO again, and as Mr. Gru says so well , 'L-eye-ght Bulb! ...' or more accurately, 'L-eye-ght Bulbs...'

    I'm 16 days today again and it's still a struggle. I feel sometimes that I am urge surfing all bloody day: The world's biggest wave. If I were a Tsunami, I would have wiped out half the West Coast by now...

    And it's almost all stress driven-My new nemesis because let's face it, my tools for coping with stress     were/are pretty flimsy: drinking to cope, bitching to cope, blaming to cope, eating to cope, shopping...

    Today thank heavens I have my new Hypno CD's (thank you again Ms. Play:h); I have my
    I pad which keeps me connected here; I have my Buddhist practice-this is quite big actually and always been my best tool but not used nearly     enough; And of course my family-the double edge sword of comfort and chaos.

    So I'm going to follow in our dear Nora's footsteps (and so many others :l) and start my very own 'Big Picture' thread which of course is made up of all the snap shots I can take along the way. Maybe I should think of this as my new Family Album since really, in many ways, you guys are a lot like family...:shocked: just kidding :l

    It is such a comfort and honor to be here. No matter what, I will never give up and I will always believe...

    Trite but true :h

    Well, here I go. Wish me luck !

      Then had a discussion outside of here about my writings. It makes more sense now. :l

        Kradle,
        You have made this happen for yourself, and the waves of positive effect that flow from you will lift your family and many people you never meet!
        Keep up the good work! You are Worth it.

            Look at you. Taking action...taking control...that's HUGE Kradle. I wish you all the best but I have confidence compliance will not be an issue for you. Use this thread to your advantage. Accountability and peer pressure work wonders. I'm proof of that :h

                          Well I am betond exhausted tonight and it is at least 98 percent mental Stress. I swera the further I get away from AL , the closer i get to becoming my parents...

                          This is not good as my dad was crazy violent and mom was a silent vodka and diet coke. person...yuk.

                          They were such academics and pushed all of us so hard to be that way and my beautiful kids are in no way academic.... I am trying so hard to pull the hell back here but for the first time i think I'd be better off being a spectator in my own life..with a rum and coke and put my feet up and ....boy I better not go there...

                          Well,I'm just going to eat my comfort food rice and chicken cassorole... but I know I need to run over to the school and sign everyone up for Basket ball. I won't stop at the store...I won't stop at the store. I will think about just coming home, glueing the eyes on George washington and Paul Revere... and making hot cocoa.

                          God, even the dog stressed me out tonight. I need this weekend to arrive like NOW!

                          Okay...feel better...
