ODAT - Monday

Well, the bewitching hour is fast approaching ... I don't have the same urge I had at this time yesterday ... but I've yet to start the dinner... so who knows! I'm going to do my best to stay away from AL again today. That's all I can do, right ... ODAT! With the support I've found here I think I can do it.

ODAT - Monday

Happy Monday evening ODATers,

Bessie, you lead such an interesting life. Seems there's hardly room in it for the old al. Sea, you are doing so wonderfully. Keep it up. And to everyone, I'm in a much better place today myself. Realized this morning that I was NOT irritated with the girls and their needs, but had some latent anger over a boss that is still pulling her old control stunts even though she left nearly 3 months ago. I let it get to me. Anyway, a woman who comes in the office on Monday mornings listened to my rant, and we ended up laughing hysterically. So, while we're all trying to keep old al at bay (or out the door), it's so easy to give in when we hit the bumps. And like Greenie and her husband, I'm not going to let others and their issues "invade" me. Am back - feeling strong - and thank you for letting me go on.

I so look forward to all your news. It's the highlight of my day! Enjoy a wonderful evening.

V.

ODAT - Monday

Well it looks like I've made it through this evening AF ... YEAH! I had milk with dinner, after my "berry juice & club soda"-filled wineglass that got me through the dinner prep. That seems to be working for me. To get out after dinner, I suggested to hubby we go out for ice cream. He said I shocked him ---- I'd have always said no to going out, much prefered to sit down with another glass of wine. It was nice. Then came home and made Peppermint tea and read a bit. Will be bedtime in about 1 hour, so I thought share my happiness. This is a big step for me. Checking in here has certainly been the catalyist. See you tomorrow!
