30 days???

Cindi, I am feeling really good that I am not drinking anymore. I wake up every morning feeling like I've accomplished something just by not drinking and that I am getting healthier every day. My self respect and self confidence were down around my ankles before--now, it's coming back.

I have the usual problems to contend with from so many years of drinking, and I get angry with myself because I sometimes want to drink, but I am trying to be gentle with myself. Family life is stressful--my oldest child has medical and learning problems so she requires a lot of time and energy and I worry about her all of the time. I am, however, back to being productive at work and I get up early in the morning 5 days a week to work out--pretty amazing since before I stopped drinking, I could hardly function mentally or physically.

Pool is finally done. Dear God I thought it would enver be finished. Now filling with water will take 2 days. Billy's neice called me at 4 am the other night. She had ran away and wanted me to come get her. i do NOT get along with his sister so I really was in an awkward position. I was out of town on business so I couldn't get her. BUT, she called again when I returned home and still had not been home, so I got ehr and took her to the police department. It is against the law in SC to run away and I figured her Mom had reported her missing..NOPE...the child had been gone for longer than 24 hours and her Mom hadn't even bothered to look for her or report her. Then the police department couldnt even get her to answer the damn phone. SO, I brought her home until she decided to come get her. She is a dang pot head and treats her kids like shit. I felt bad for her but I am slowly learning I can not save the world.

Forgot to tell you I was out hiking this morn and ran across this stinking plant. I'd seen one in my yard before and didnt know what it was but it stunk up my whole yard and its big. Anyway I had my camera so took a pic and showed it to the park ranger who didnt know what it was either. Finally found it on the net and it is called an elegant stinkhorn. I will be laughing over that for awhile...hahaha
