Hope

Well, my day started off with a bang this morning. At midnight, I heard my husband getting in his car in the driveway. He was supposedly staying in a Super 8-which none of us believed. I ignored him and went to bed. At 8:00 this morning, his boss called saying that my husband had fallen (we later... Sign in to see full entry.

Family

My husband showed up at my daughter's house saying he had a good day and went to a meeting, more bs. My son-in-law told him that we knew everything, being kicked out of the halfway house, all of it. My husband tried to leave, but my son-in-law told him to sit his ass down because he wasn't done... Sign in to see full entry.

The Ten Guides to Good Human Relations

Speak to People. There is nothing as nice as a cheerful greeting. Call people by name * not names, the sweetest music is to hear one's name called. Have humility. There is something to be learned from every living thing. Be friendly. If you have to have a friend, be one. Be cordial. Speak and act as... Sign in to see full entry.

Here we go again!

My youngest daughter came home today to find my husband asleep (more likely passed out) on her front porch. Needless to say, she was shocked and caught off guard. He gave her a sob story about not having enough money to live at the halfway house and the food was no good, etc. He had the gall to ask... Sign in to see full entry.

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day! I am fortunate enough to still have my Daddy. I have lived next door to my parents for 25 years. Many people would not be able to do that, but we love it. Dad is 80 but still thinks he is 20 and needs to take care of his little girl. He is a wonderful man and would help anyone in... Sign in to see full entry.

Pity Party

I am having such a pity party today. I don't know why, but weekends are just so hard. Besides, it's father's day and everyone is doing "family" things. I just feel like my family has been uprooted, turned upside down, and set back down broken and battered. Today in the mail I got a letter telling us... Sign in to see full entry.

Grandson

My daughter and her husband took me to dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant. I always order seafood at mexican restaurants. It drives my husband crazy when I do that. When the waitress came to take our order, my grandson in the loud and exuberant voice that only a three year old uses, said, "I... Sign in to see full entry.

Joke

Here's a joke I heard at my Al-anon convention. Some people get it, some don't. An alcoholic, a drug addict, and an al-anon all went to hell. The devil asked the alcoholic why he should let him in. The alcoholic said, "I have been a terrible person. I can't leave the drink alone and I've hurt my... Sign in to see full entry.

Confused

Today I saw two different counselors who gave me conflicting views. I have decided to follow my gut and stick with my decision to not see or talk to my husband until July 1st. Then I talked to my middle daughter who I have been concerned has not accepted that her daddy is an alcoholic but insists... Sign in to see full entry.

My back dr. released me yesterday. So excited! No more physical therapy. Yay!!! I have been dealing with this since Jan. 9. I knew it was getting better because I did a lot of lifting when I was getting ready for the garage sale. Physical therapy seemed like a waste of time in the beginning, but...
