    30 days???

    Nibs,

    I just read your post about the conversation with your Mom. It sounds as though you are well on your way to establishing healthy boundaries. It was always tough for me to define what I would and preferred not to allow in my relationships with others. So much emotion, rather than just discussing facts. Plus throw in there that in our close relationships people usually know exactly which of our buttons to push. Sounds like you did "Great!" Contratulations!

    I will keep you in my prayers!

      30 days???

      It seems this thread is slowing down. Maybe we are all too busy lately. I know I have been. I am good I hope everyone is doing well. Nibs, it was almost 90 F. here yesterday, I hate you are stuck in the cold.

        30 days???

        Wanted to throw in a hello!

        We had 70 degree weather this weekend and we spend much of the day outside.
        In the sun. Away from the computer.

        I guess it makes sense that the posts will slow down in warmer weather.
        There's camping, hiking, boating, kite flying, birds and bugs out there.
        Yay for spring!

          Hey that old boyfriend wrote back to me that found me on classmates. I dont know if I should write back or not. Said he thinks about when we were kids and I made a big impression on him. Doesnt sound like he has any kids. Hopefully he's not married. I havent seen him for 33 years. Geez....bird

              Awwww thanks Best xxx Your are a sweetface
              Yep Bear, it is sooo cold at night and then barely hovers above the freezing mark during the day.. thank the dear Lord the days are getting longer promising summer in the near future... Your avators are an absolute Hoot !!!
              A big "Hello" to you Det, and extend that to your lovely Dx aswell... You sound really happy.
              And Bird, I replied to your email you sent, and I say go ahead and make the contact with him. He sounds like a nice fella for sure... Maybe he still has a great personality... You have nothing to lose Hon and soooo much to gain xxx

              Last night after work was special hubby time without the computer, so I didn't stop by... I did have a couple glasses of wine with him. We seem to have not had "him and me" time lately. I feel very in control, but should I hear my voice say," you-hoooo.... take a break " I will.. this has been a nice break from alcohol. I'll just go day by day, wait see.
              Today in town I thought I would have to have that tooth pulled, but after the x-ray it seems he will leave the tooth. Next week I will go back and get it filled. I'm really looking forward to that.
              We stopped by Dad and Lyndys for a quick visit. They are doing well, but tired of winter. It seems like the song everybody is singing these days.
              Well, that rototiller is much too small, so we will keep looking. Darn it !
              Tomorrow we will be painting the upstairs in our home. Yahooo !!! It will finally get finished upstairs !!!

              Well, I hope everybody is well, Hugs xxx ps, enjoy that hot weather Bear, and should you get bored with the heat, feel free to send some down here ok buddy? Haa !! Haaa !!!
              I hope ya all aren't dissapointed with me, Hugs, xxx

                Bird, call him. If you are still interested after a few conversations... Hmm, who knows? Glad you are looking forward to Spring Break.

                I am babysitting granddaughter while mama is in detox. I love the grandkids but I like to sleep, too. I hope she goes to bed at a reasonable time. Then tomorrow I have to watch daughter's hubby's sons (2 and 6) while he goes to visit my daughter. I'm sure my two other grandsons will get into the mix somehow. I thought I was past all this stuff!! However, they are all so darned cute and popcorn and diet sodas seem to be magical, plus the Playstation 3 never hurts either.

                I am just praying that detox leads my girl down the AF path. She is sooo sick.

                Love to all,
                Cindi

                ps LUV, I miss you. :l

                      Hi Dovie,

                      I'm so glad you are OK and out in your garden again. It's almost April!

                      I'll remember your Mama in my prayers and wish her a peaceful passing. The angels, I know, will be gentle.

                      She'll be with you always; it's time for another "time" in your life~ albeit too soon.

                      Love you little one,

                      m. xx

                        Hi all'
                        Had a big day at school yesterday digging up flower beds. TG the teachers did the planting this year with the kids and that took alot of stress off. Did not want a beer afterwards, first time since going AF. Up at regular time this A>M. So much for sleeping in. Yeah I'm gonna write to that guy and see how it goes. Nibs too bad about the roto tiller. And have fun painting. Cindi hope it all goes well for you. Thinking of you all. love bird

                                TxGirlie,

                                Sorry I didn't call today. I will call tomorrow morning BEFORE all the kids come over. I have been hopping all day. I ended up with 5 of them running around. One is a two year old, it has been YEARS since I dealt with a little one who couldn't talk well yet. You know the words that make no sense, end up pointing, carrying, showing, etc. It was fun but I am tired.

                                Nibs,

                                I am a Granny. 3 biological, this year they will be 10 - 8 - 6 one of my even years and now two more 2 - 6 from my daughter's marriage. They are all a cute as can be. :-) I am, however, too old to keep up with 5 of them and a sick hubby. Whew, it has been quite a day, let me tell you.

                                Love to everyone!! I took my Trazadone and it does turn me into a zombie. Completely.

                                Love and goodnight all,
                                Cindi

                                Oh, still AF. :-) Gotta love the Antabuse!!
