Pauly-please check in. We MUST find something for you to do on Fridays, because looking back at your old posts....you're ok on the days that you are working for the most part, but it's something about Fridays when you're off work, and you start thinking about issues with your kids, etc., it just overwhelms you. It seems like you feel like you can't control the fact that they're drinking and drugging, and then you feel helpless...am I right? If I'm not, please tell me, because I really do care.:hug:

Fen, I'm so glad you had a good day! Hoping those good days become more frequent! I'm not an avid hiker, but I do enjoy going occasionally.
Rusty, he frowns upon me drinking any al.Comment

Rusty and Liz, I wish I shared your passion for football. I am the only person in WI who isn't into it! Mrs. Fen was at a Badger game yesterday and she's a major Packer fan. My sister wife Barb is a football maniac. She couldn't believe that I didn't give one hoot that the Badgers were playing yesterday, lol! I look forward to the day that I am in my own place. No football noise on the t.v! In fact, no t.v. at all. Mrs. Fen has offered the small one in her upstairs office, but I don't watch it.
Rusty, I think Tom Brady is a scum bag. I can't believe he was sprung from his detention or whatever the heck that was. There was so much text evidence that he'd been ordering those guys to under inflate the balls. Just gross how badly that team cheats. Oops...I do sound like somebody who follows the game a little bit!
Rusty, how long is the lake path walk? It sounds delightful. I hope you have a good day.
Thanks, Liz. It was nice to feel so good in the first time since I can't even remember. I hope you have a good day, too.Comment

Pauly, do you see how little sense it makes to drink because your kids are doing drugs? It's the same thing. Please come and check in...I'm worried about you. I never was able to send you a p.m.Originally posted by Rusty View PostComment

Wow, I can hear the iron man competition from my sister wive's house! It's five miles away.
Nora, how are you doing?
SKendall, maybe we should start a divorce thread! I am waiting for the cabin to sell so I can get my own place. I am looking forward to painting it and furnishing it just the way I want. How long were you married?Comment

Hey all,not really sure wtf I was thinking on Friday, right now I'm blown away that I even drank! I guess just a combo of being sick for so long,knowing I'd be alone all day,feeling sort of groggy,then my daughter, I just sort of didn't care at the time,I care now that I'm sweaty and headachy and of course the letting myself down again, poor hubs was sent home cuz he caught what I had and he had to deal with my drunk ass,sheesh!I wish Icould say iI didn't drink much but it was a lot,the stupid alcoholic in me won't let me have a few and I know that but what do I keep doing? Same old garbage,I'm not beating myself up though cuz it'll only make me feel worse but I'm not letting myself off the hook easy either, gonna make sure that I stick to the strategy that's been working for me and not let my skills fall off,I'd been slacking on exercise, positive thinking, supplements, etc cuz I just wasn't feeling good,I know it all sounds like excuses but it is what it is,hope everyone enjoys their Sunday,much love to all
I have too much shit to do today and tomorrow to drink:sohappy:
I'm taking care of the "tomorrow me":thumbsup:
Drinkin won't help a damn thing! Will only make me sick for DAYS and that ugly, spacey dumb feeling-no thanks!Comment

Yo Pauly! Glad you're back! The skills don't go away, as well you know! :victorious:Comment

Pauly, so glad you are doing better. Re-read the Toolbox, sometimes we read a nugget of info that our brain retains.
You were overwhelmed when you drank. Try to break down all the issues one at a time so its manageable, but being sick on top of it all just got too much.
You are a lovely person, loving mother and grandmother and a hard worker, you have an awful lot going for you.
Take care.Enlightened by MWOComment

Hiya Fen. I was married over 30 years. I live about 2 hours west of Seattle within a short drive to the ocean and I can see Mt. Baker from my window.
It's a little overcast today. I've started writing bedtime stories for my granddaughter, and don't know why I haven't done it before. Her name is Vivian, but in my stories her name is Miracle.
Having a lot of fun with it, it's also therapeutic for me.Enlightened by MWOComment

For some reason, I thought you were across the pond. Maybe I saw you posting with army peeps?Originally posted by SKendall View Post
My bro and sister in law lived in Kent, WA until they moved to Thailand (her native land) in retirement. My nieces and nephews and their families all live in Kent and Auburn. Maybe if I get out that way to visit, we can meet! From this forum, I've met Sunshinedaisies, Nora C, Coco-nut and a woman who no longer posts.
Thirty years! So you're even more devastated than I am. I'm really sorry. How are you doing with the whole thing? What on earth was hubs thinking?
I love that you're writing stories for your granddaughter. I have always made up songs for my spouses, friends, cats, etc. It's a fun and sweet thing to personalize things for people we love.Comment

Shambles, your avatar reminds me of that "Strangers with candy" episode where Jerri Blank (46 year old ex crack whore returning to high school) accidentally runs over her art teacher, Mr. Jellinek and tears off his face! That's a must see.Comment

For anyone who views the clip, biology teacher Mr. Noblet is Mr. Jellinek's closeted lover. I loved that series. : )Comment
