    The Kradle Will Not Fall...

    Kradle: I have just come back to this site and am so proud that you continue to fight the fight despite all of the things you have had to endure with your children. I am going to stick close to this site and try to rack up the days again....hopefully for good. Pls keep us updated.

      Hello, sweet 4 !! I've been wondering, thinking of you. I think July was the last time we posted.

      Thank you so much for weighing in. I need all the help I can get! :h especially with your having twins 2... The girls keep me hopping...not the kind that Matt does but I know the tag teaming can real old real fast. Yours are 8 now

      Lots to talk about! So glad your back, :l:h

          Hi Kradle, haven't been on the sight for a while but got your messages. I left my cell phone at home this morning (when I needed it the most) so may have missed any communication from you.

          Wow, so glad that Matt handled it so well (considering what might have happened). The girls will eventually understand. Mom and Dad do not take dangerous behaviour lightly. By your decisive action, you have possibly avoided a lot of future experimentation by those two precious girls.

          PM me if you can talk. xxox

            Kradle, so relieved Matt did so much better than anticipated. You are strong!!! I am very proud of you. Not sure many Mom could be as strong. I am in awe really. Things will be ok. ((hugs))

                The Kradle Will Not Fall...

                Wanted to ramble a bit tonight...

                Watched that film, "Flight'" and while I had high expectations, it didn't speak.to me really.... The Denzel character played really two profound extremes: an almost superhuman pilot and a completely crazy, out of control Alcoholic....the film hit the heart again for me of this notion of highly functioning AL because I even while it's awful to achieve such a degree of success and home and happiness and then lo
                One it to All, those of us who knew we could achieve all those things but allowed AL to cut us off from them...well... I guess for me that's the more unendurable reality...both are awful of course but never realizing your potential is as cruel as realizing and then loosing...

                There's a great line in Amadeus where Herr Saliari is pissed off at God and asks angrily why God would give him the desitre to play great music and deny him the ability...in the end I found him a more tragic character than Mozart who reveled in his ability and then lost it....

                And then there's those of us who might be highly capable but have cut ourselves off from all that potential...all that success...all that piloting a plane upside down kind of thing....

                I think I'm just buried in Mathieu Think tonight. Had to go to his school and clean out his locker and return his books. Everyone was so kind. They said how much they really enjoyed him and would miss Nima nd they meant it. I could tell.....all that potential he has....Jeez....let's all hope and pray that Arivaca let's him grab himself by the horns and land that plane for real this time...

                :l:h

                  Kradle: yon are doing the best thing you can for your son. You are redirecting his path...something many parents are too fearful to do bc they don't want to appear as tho they can't handle it. Then there child becomes lost for good. They have low self esteem and end up going down the wrong path. Your strong stewardship will be rewarded in the end. Thinking of you....

                    thinking of you too...cleaning out his locker is such a sad visual...

                      Hi Kradle :l

                      I am so proud of how strong you are. You are doing what's best for Matthieu, even though it's hard for YOU...and that's what us parents do. I've been on a bit of a ride with my daughter lately, and yeah, I'd love to just hide from it, but that wouldn't help her, although it would be easy for me. *SIGH* I just want you to know that I'm thinking of your entire family. Matt will be ok. You'll get through this....and he'll land that plane. :h

                        Super wiped put tonight...al out drank last night...isn't that just ridiculous? Steered clear and am very happy I did. Doesn't Byride say that "you wil never regret not drinking..."
                        So true.

                        No word for Mathieu tonight and Sunday is the email night. I want to email him but frankly I just feel very ...tongue tied and I'd rather be silent than say sometngvwhich might disrupt him, even though Im well intentioned.

                        Luna is stil coughing. Giving her honey with lemon and a little robatusen. She hates it but seems to be getting better.

                        The girls are practicing for the Sounds of The Season Competetion? Good Lord what a pain In the ass this is because they are sooooooooo competitive and quarreling over the littlest things...audition is Dec 4th. I hope I make it till then!

                        Heading to bed. Love you guys.

                              I'm such a twit...struggling the last few weeks but not drinking...using the tools....then....overload with the girls stuff and hormones and nosebleeds and chilling emails from Matt...and I had 2 tonics last night and feel awful this morning.... :yuk:

                              I want so much to step up and out of this position- to really hit it out of the park, soon. I want to be in the 100 day club!! I want to be like Nora! and K9 and Birdy and all those guys over there....I feel like a little kid watching the grown ups drive their big beautiful cars and thinking, 'some day... that 'll be me!! '

                              Well it will never be me if I dont stop reverting to this ridiculous, totally useless copin mechanism- it just sets me back, eats up money and gives me a fucking headache ...

                              Just keep swimming...just keep swimming...just keep swimming, swimming swimming...

                                Hi Kradle! :l

                                Just keep trying...that's all anybody can do. Remember next time how those 2 tonics didn't help you, in fact they just made you feel worse. Like you said, you need a new coping mechanism. Can you find a way to relax, a bath, a walk, CD's...anything to get outside of yourself for a few minutes until the feeling passes? Did the 2 drinks give you a hangover? Hang onto that feeling as well...the memory of my last one still makes me want to puke!

                                Hang in there dear friend. We're here to help you back up! :h
