Keepers on Netflicks ??

Yup. Addictive stuff. If I was FT alky and didn't have a job but cld somehow afford Netflix that's all I'd do each day. Be slovenly and slouch my life away binging on endless TV series... living lives through others :egad: Thank goodness i got a bit more of a life!

Morning troops. Was up and early for a swim... but gone and lost my swimming trunks :haha: So may have to go to gym instead. Was just wanting to lay off any pressure on me legs as my right hip feels a bit funny :uncomfortableness:

Have a top tuesday...

Morning..
Feeling very depressed about young Satz.
Feel my whole life is now about whether he is going to be drunk or not. Don't want to get out of bed tbh......
I wake up with pains in every part of me - hands & arms especially - as if I 've been tensed up all night in a ball.

Night all. Busy day, work and then airport run for daughter. Echo what a Mary says.

Keepers is watchable but will really annoy you about the Church, the abuse and the cover ups. What’s new, any of you see the film on Friday night about Fr Brendan Smith? Stomach churning and heard today they are on about another priest.
Anyway night all.

AND women are still not good enough to take part in the church as equals.
And STILL people here still troop off to the Church every Sunday and support them - to see that having been abused by them must be so hurtful...
Has come to light - our ex-president Mary McAleese's brother was abused - so I'm thinking more shit will hit the fan in the coming weeks.

That's Just fecking terrible Benjy - Does he know what he is doing to you? Its SO wrong in your own home to feel like that - I think you need to say or do something dramatic to bring it home to him - let us think - I really am upset for you - where's he getting the money for drink now?

I haven't set foot in a church for at least 20 years except for kids christenings and things - I will have nothing to do with that vile organisation

Me neither. Going to give my body to College of Surgeons for science study.
They take you away - no fuss - for 2 years then cremate you ....

I think you need to say or do something dramatic to bring it home to him

When he gets up I going to tell him to find a place of his own.
I won't think what will happen beyond that - 'cos if I do I won't do it.....

But if you're going to say it you MUST be willing to follow it through - otherwise he will know you will never do it - so be sure you mean it or say nothing - it's hard! Xxxx

I will say it - he has nowhere else to go. This was last chance saloon.
Mr S is not here to stop me .....
I am under no illusion he'd be somewhere else if he could afford it ....

Do it, me darling. We'll be here to hold your hand for as long as needs be.........perhaps change the locks??

Re: Join up! Army against the grog!!! March 2018

Satz.......I know how hard this must be for you. I agree with the others; young satz has put your back against the wall. You've done everything you can and now it's up to him, and being on his own might be the wakeup call he needs. This whole ordeal is taking its toll on you emotionally, and now physically. Look after yourself first or you won't be around to help anyone!

I was raised a Catholic, but haven't been to church in ages; too much corruption and greed. I tried to go back once but found that nothing had changed. So very sad...

Well -- did you face him down? Not being nosy - just want you to know we are here for you - he HAS to get to see where drink has gotten him - not all cosy with his own bedroom to drink in peace - no - he's now going to be put out of his loving parents house because his behaviour is so utterly unacceptable -- SOMETHING has to click - eventually - unfortunately it looks like its gonna fall to you to make it click -- thinking of you xxxx

I too was raised a Catholic - was in a Catholic boarding school for 8 years - my father used to tell me stories of how the 'poor' boys - who had no shoes were put to one side of the classroom and regularly beaten... the 'rich' kids were treated completely differently - fawned over -- and that was by Catholic brothers.... I know - nothing to what we know they've done - but that was 'regular' - not even an atrocity...
When I was in boarding school - my parents were only allowed visit me on Sundays - there was a family friend who happened to be a priest - -young man - and he was allowed to take me out any day or time of the week - on his motorbike - unsupervised... thankfully he was a good man - but I was a little girl - the nuns were responsible for that

I'm so sorry Satz these darn "kids" drive us crazy! Thinking of you

Hi Pauly - indeed they do - I've had a share of them driving us mad too - it's not good enough you know - once I was finished in education - I wasn't 'told' I was on my own - but I more or less knew that -- grown up and off you go.. don't be dumping worries on my mum -- (my dad was dead) - wouldn't have dreamt of causing her anxiety.

Re: Join up! Army against the grog!!! March 2018

I'm thinking of you [MENTION=9094]satz123[/MENTION]. Tough love is so much easier said then done but maybe it is time for that.
We all changed our thinking about alcohol, and he can, too. But as we all know, it has to come from him :hug:.

Re: Join up! Army against the grog!!! March 2018

Evening folks, Benji I am lost for words at this stage, soul destroying stuff.

Molly dear please don't get me started on the 'Christian' brothers that taught (aka beat the crap out of) me.

My interview went very well today, have just been invited back up to see them tomorrow evening, so fingers crossed, but I am trying hard not to get ahead of myself here.
