Well, let's see. Saturday morning I poured all the rest of the booze down the drain and figured out how much money I have spent in the last five years on AL--$13,000. That's a luxury round-the-world cruise on the QE2 for crap's sake!
Kept busy but at mid-day heard my little brain say "How dumb to pour out the booze, you could have finished up and started Monday." Thank God we had a foot of snow and news alerts to stay off the road (yeah, like I am going to haul my fat ass outside to hack snow and ice off the mini-car and drive down roads that are higher than my knees!
So it was not heroism or strength..just a lazy cold-weather hater--but it worked.
HARD NIGHT with Mommie Dearest. She has gone totally off the deep end, ranting, raging, hateful calls, threats to herself and others. Totally boozed up. Hallucinations, making up stories --on and on and on. All night long, calls back and forth between siblings. To make a long story short, we are going to make the painful decision to have her committed to a mental institution. This will require a court hearing and telling all. I know that what my family has been through is horrid, but this is going to be AWFUL.
My husband is working all day so I am home alone. I am just hurtingI know she is mentally ill and not my "real" mother, but my heart aches anyway. :upset:
The streets are plowed, my husband cleaned off the car, and the liquor store down the street is open for business. I am going to fight the good fight today and will probably be on and off the site all day--to hell with laundry and paying bills and housework.
PLEASE HELP ME KEEP STRONG:thanks:
