Yay! it's Friday. Interesting to read of people feeling blue. It just hits you out of nowhere sometimes. Last week was really hard for me, for some reason, this week has been better. This time of year is sooooo hard. We are having a little January thaw and it really helps. Hope lil, LBH and sooty are feeling better today.
LBH, I can relate to wanting to drink when your husband leaves. About a year ago, my husband was out of town for five days. I had a bottle of wine an evening, talking on the phone. Deadly. Not a good idea. But I did it.
Spedtech, sorry you are still getting harrassed about last January. Keep your head held high and know you are on a better path. Honestly, I think sometimes people are just scared and don't want a repeat. This alcohol thing makes family members angry and helpless. I know one time my son went to my husband and said, "Why do you let mom drink like that?" :upset:How humilitating to relive that memory. I have never told anyone that one before, whew, a good reminder for me to stay AF this weekend.
I found a quote I would like to share:
It is good to have an end to journey towards;
but it's the journey that matters in the end.
Ursula K. LeGuin
No matter where we are right now, we have all made strides in our life journeys, trying to live AF lives. We are learning about ourselves daily, sharing with each other, with support and encouragment. Again, I appreciate all or you and have learned and continue to learn how to live life AF. Thanks. :h
