    One Step at a Time - April 2014

    Dottie that is just horrifying weather!! :egad:...and one the main reasons I left the east coast 20 years ago...geez has it been that long?

      Thanks for the words Fenny. You always give me feedback and I appreciate that... :l

      It's different this time... that was his last hurrah. I have a contingency plan if it happens again. If he gets messed up like that out of the house I'll change my alarm code... he stays away for 72 hours (as long as it takes for the booze to leave his system) and if he tries to come home the alarm will go off. If he gets drunk under my roof, a (very large strong male) friend is coming to remove him... and he stays away for 72 hours. Up to him at this point but these are the new rules. 3 days of not being able to access his computer, legal documents etc... umm... that might get his attention more than me talking as he obviously pays NO attention to what I have to say. At the end of the 3 days he can come back and pack his stuff.

      Oh well. Such is life in all it's splendiferous wonder...

        Hiya Kradle! :l

        Nah... that's the difference... Bill doesn't think he's one of us. He thinks he's better than us. His brother died from alcoholism and he looks down on him for that. And his mum is an alkie too, as is his remaining brother. Bill reckons he's an attorney and above the foibles of the rest of us mere humans... Well... hello! He is very smart but he ain't all that and a bag of chips!

            I knew what you meant Kradle... )

            Well, think I'm gonna turn in. Sorry for bitching on about this. The real answer is... I'm putting up with it therefor I should zip it or do something. If it was 15 years ago I'd have kicked him to the curb. I changed... I accept more, and I'm lazy!

              Zen, as long as you are safe. That is all that matters.

                Thanks hon. I'm really sorry about your mum. I hope the treatment will work well for her... and it may very well. It's one of those things that remains to be seen I guess. Hang in there... :l

                  It was lovely at the lake. Nice to be outside with hubs and Clay all day.
                  I hope K9 is back with us today.
                  Kradle. What happened with Matt?
                  Dots or Fen- can you tell me how to plant some tomatoes that will actually grow! Pots? Or in the ground?
                  Gonna be a long week, but I won't complain.....yet!
                  Zen and Nora , I am a phone call away

                    Mama, planting tomatoes in pots is hard...they have too uneven amounts of moisture to do well and then you end up with blossom end rot and other unpleasantness. I would put them in the ground instead....gotta run, but back later!

                    I love you all.

                      mama I agree with fen...I have mine in a raised bed but it is still the ground...I had blossom end rot when I had them in a pot years ago..lesson learned.
                      Off to the gym...back later.

                          You guys brought tears to my eyes with all the well wishes! Thank you SO much!! :h

                          My mom is OK for now. The next step is to see if it has spread to the lymph nodes. She has a doctors appointment later this week. Both her and my dad are very impressed with the doctor, so at least there's that. He will NOT let them slip through the cracks. He goes out of his way to contact them. Once we get those results, we'll deal with it from there. We have a super close family, and TONS of friends through our religion, so we will have a lot of support through this. And of course, I have all of YOU!!! :l:l

                          I tried to read back, but a lot has happened. Just know I'm thinking of you all and thanking you for your kind wishes. I will be around a lot today. Love you guys LOTS!!!!
                          :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

                          Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.

                            I mentioned this to Mama but not in a lot of detail. The day I got the news about my Mom, my ex-boyfriend (it's been 8 years!) sent me a random text. I basically told him to EFF OFF! (Ok, not "basically"...that's what I said!). Then he goes "Please do not contact me, I'd prefer not to have to change my number"....WTF?? LOL All I can do is laugh.
