    One Step at a Time - May 2013

    Evening all,

    Nora have not talked to her yet plan on doing that tomorrow or Monday.

    It's been a good day. Had a long talk with my niece about her lifestyle, has a lot of friends with benefits, and her son, he is 3. She says she is ready to change I pray she is sincere.

    Loved playing with Levi (her son) he brings so much joy and is one of the benefits of being sober.

    Sweet dreams my friends,
    JDG

      14 days down the hole. You can drink on a quarter of a 250mg of AB. I'll have to increase it, tiredness or not. I don't want to talk about tonight.

      I'm still in shock from the weekend, in every sense of the word. I want to say my father is evil, but it's more like warped. None of us knows where to go from here. His behavior is so bizarre that I couldn't begin to tell you about it.

      I slept most of the day, but got my world in order tonight. I had tossed things everywhere, and since I don't deal with chaos very well, I picked up and put away. Ahh.

      I'm sorry I'm not responding to everyone's posts. I haven't read them, and don't know what's going on. I'm numb, but I'll recover.

      You're the peeps I wanted to spill my guts to tonight. Funny how things change. No phone call to friends.

        Oh Juja sweetheart I'm so sorry about your father, and it sounds as though the rest of your family is no support either.

        I can only say that this is a safe place for you and we're all here for you, If I can be of any help please let me know . :h:h

          Hello everyone,

          Nora am I reading this right? Your son's friend posts he's in jail in Thailand on FB and thinks it's funny? What's wrong with people? Specifically what wrong with him?

          Juja, take care okay. Family dynamics are just downright unpleasant at times aren't they. Congrats on 14 days!

          I hope everyone has a great rest of the holiday weekend!

            Morning all,

            Just wanted to wish everyone a safe and sober Sunday. Holiday WE almost over and not a drop. Hubs just told me how proud he is of me. Yay!

            Juja - Hang in there girl. I know first hand how heart wrenching family issues can be. Feel free to vent here if you need to. Prayers with you.

            Nora - What ?!?!?! Your son is in jail? Honey I am so sorry prayers with you too.

            Check in after church

                Morning all -

                JDG - no - he's not in jail. It was a stupid joke on facebook. You are doing great. So happy for you. :l

                Juja - can't stop thinking about you. :h

                Pauly - I am on Wellbutrin and Lexapro. She upped my Wellbutrin last month because of I haven't been coping well with everything. I am going to go back down. I feel awful on it. Plus, my memory is horrible now. I forgot my pin number to my debit card. :upset:

                Allswell - I hope that you are having a wonderful, relaxing weekend. :h

                Ok - I'm back to my book. I just can't put it down. Have a wonderful day everyone.

                  Evening Peeps,

                  Nora - I agree with a previous post I would beat their tail. That is so not funny.

                  Proud to report my talk with my dad did help. He has been nice to me and Lane, and they are actually gone fishing together with my husband. What? I know right, this is an answered prayer.

                  I am so glad to be sober so I could handle this situation, otherwise my son would still be hurting.

                  Once we make the decision to get and stay sober, the rewards are out of this world.

                  Hoping everyone has a great Sunday evening.

                    Ok its admission time,

                    I had a few beers today. I know go ahead and discipline. I deserve it. Not sure what happened, it just happened so fast, one minute I was good and the next 2 beers down.

                    Good reports 1 I remember why I don't drink, don't like the feeling. 2 I did not get drunk 3 this time I openly admitted to what I had done, for me this is progress. Usually I lie.

                    Not telling the family as we are just now mending the relationship with my dad, and that ok with me. I have enough guilt within myself.

                    Tomorrow is a new day.

                      Hey everyone! I slept in until noon and it was great!!!!!!:H:H

                      JDG - good for you for stopping at a few and realizing. :h

                      Juja - where are you?? Thinking about yoiu. :l

                      I took Nalrexone yesterday evening. Made me feel really weird and yucky. But, I didn't get sick to my stomach like last time. I didn't even feel like drinking. The problem is that I still feel sick & shaky today. I'll keep plugging away. Getting in those AF days.

                      Hope everyone is having a wonderful day today!!!!

                        Hi, everyone,

                        I'm here, and sober. Thanks for being concerned about me--makes me feel loved, which I desperately need.

                        I don't have much to say. I'm still numb from the weekend family dynamics, and can't quite process all that happened. My father's the problem. He's crazy, and there's no way to deal with crazy people, except to ignore them, which I can't do. He's irrational, unreasonable, but his word is law.

                        I'll start AB again on Wednesday, after my system is clear.

                        Hoping for a good night's sleep to clear the brain. I'm going to start a book to take me away.

                        Love you all very much.:h

                          Oh Juja - I am so sorry. I have been thinking about you so much. That is such a hard position to be in. :l We are here if you need to vent, cry or whatever. Love you lots.

                          Back to my book too. I've got two going again.

                            Hi everyone,

                            Juja, family dynamics are difficult at times but being here and sober is the most important thing.

                            Hey Nora, so glad you're back to posting and letting us all know things are okay.

                            Hope everyone had a relaxing, easy weekend!

                              Oh my gosh......we just watched the very end of "The Best Times of our Lives". I have been sobbing. :upset: Finally opened up & told Scott some things about right before my Dad died. Hearing my Dad call for my Mom......

                              Wow - guess I've been thinking about that a lot in the last few days. Yesterday was 3 months since my Dad died and a year since my cousin's husband died.

                              Ok - back to a different movie. :H:H The Four Seasons. LOVE this movie.

                              Allswell - how are YOU doing?????:h
