Grateful today


I am grateful today as I had a great night sleep, despite the abf getting drunk. We worked all day in the back yard and he drank all day but did work. By evening, he was getting drunker and had to go for a beer run. I admit, I enabled him, by driving to the liquor store. He made a fire outside in the fire pit in the back yard and I went inside the house, had a snack and went to bed. I last saw him sitting by himself by the fire with his beer. I just left him there and went to bed. I had a great sleep, thanks to sleeping pills. I woke up refreshed this morning and he was still drinking at 10 am. He just went to bed and is now passed out for the day! That is ok with me. I sat outside this morning and journaled and plan to go to the steam room later today. I am still sick but the pain that was in my back that made it near impossible to walk with is starting to settled down, a tiny bit. I have an infection inside my stomach and on antibiotics. I am grateful the medication is working as the pain is bearable in my back now. The sun is shinning outside today, and its gorgeous out. I am grateful, the abf left me alone so I can have a restful sleep. What makes me miserable is lack of sleep because he is groping me at night, talking in my ear, laying beside me while drunk. It drives me NUTS. I hate having a drunk sleep beside me. Last night he was getting miserable with me and I just walked away and came inside. I knew, talking with him while drunk was useless and would make me mad. This morning, I am grateful, and happy! Maybe, if all goes well, he will sleep all day and I will have a quite day! Thanks for listening..
