    ODAT Tuesday July 13th 2010

    hey all,

    What a day!!! I have been putting up with more hurt and pain from the unstoppable and narcisstic ex.. but I am taking steps to dealing with him in a productive manner.. I have had no cigarettes all day, and am on Day 25 AF! I am feeling stressed but am learning to ride it, and deal with it - its normal to feel negative emotions, but its the way we handle them in a way that is productive to us, and not destructive, that is important..
    Have my wonderful partner coming round shortly and we are going to the police about my ex.. I hope he will be locked up as he is out of control!
    I hope everyone has a fab AF Tuesday!!!

    Also - I am going to rehab for 6 weeks in August/Sept - for the psychotherapy, not detox since I am not drinking..

      Hi Katie and Time,

      Well whatever struggles you face Katie, its obvious you have become a stronger person through these trials. Dont ever let the struggles beat you. Time, good job at racking up those days again.

      It is early morning here, and I am going to be packing up my sleeping son in the car for a trip over to Disneyland, Florida here in a few minutes. Now, this is a big deal for me, and something I could never do with drinking in my life, no way. The benefits from sobriety are so worth it if you just keep sticking with it. I think day 16 for me?

      Have a blessed day, and wish me luck, LOL! Ill probably need it
      I LOVE MY SEROTONIN AND BOOZE SCREWS IT UP!!!!!

I hope you guys have an amazing time, and congrats on all your AF days.. being AF definately gets us more motivated to do things.. so enjoy and make the most of the wonderful time with your little boy - I went to Disneyland, Florida when I was 15 - a long time ago now! but still have some fantastic memories..
        Time - well done too on your AF days..

          Thank you Katie!!

          Im a bit nervous due to I have to drive 2 hours in heavy traffic. Eww. Im sure things will be fine though. Yes, now is the time to take him. He is 6 and at that age to remember it now.

          Yes, when you get some sober time in you, its amazing how you can see the world different and want to explore it more! I like that! Im tired of life passing me by and I know you are too! We dont have to go back to that place again, if we choose not too!! And our boys deserve sober Moms. Your doing a great job and I am really proud of you!

            Hi Katie

            You are a tower of strength at the moment and you should be really proud of the way that you are holding strong during this difficult time. You are right that feeling stressed and upset is normal and you are certainly handling everything in a superhuman way. When things become tough you need to look around you and be grateful for the wonderful things/people that surround you.

            You are going great........because you are GREAT! xoxo

                    Hey Mama,
                    Sorry to hear you are feeling overwhelmed.. but great to hear you are sober! Life does have a knack of getting on top of us.. i hope you find a way to unwind and relax (sans AL).. remember what an amazing family you have! life does suck at times, but there's also heaps to be grateful for.. take care, and i hope things start looking up for you soon,
