Wanted to touch base here, still have not read the postings but will do that today or tomorrow. As I work my program I find that I have more time for me and what I want! The only regret I have is that I didn't find Alanon 15 years ago. LOL We had a pretty uneventful or not much of alcohol related incidents over the weekend.
My A called my Friday on his way home to tell me that I was right!!!!! That he would bring my pain pills home, that he was selfish to not think about my pain and was thinking of him and his buddy. I said very cautiously,,,,, okay. Then he called my at 8:30 Friday night (his out with the boys night) to tell me he was on his way home, wanted to know if I needed anything....Okay to be honest with you, at that point, I thought my A had been abducted by Aliens and there was an imposter calling me. LOL Saturday I did errands in the morning, we went to a barbeque in the late afternoon. He didn't get stumbling drunk. We went home early and we ordered pay per view Ultimate Fighting Championship. THE KIDS EVEN WATCHED IT WITH US!!!
Yesterday, I was so busy all day with errands and taking my 18 yr old out driving. My A went golfing, left at 11 and arrived home at 11.....I wasn't upset one bit, I did tell him that he would have to hear his own alarm, that I would no longer be waking him up for work when he is out the night before. He got up this morning on time. We are going to the Seahawks game tonight. This is another weekend that I feel blessed and there was no crisis. I love it when it's like this. I am finding the more I work my program the easier each crisis gets.
Whooooohoooooo :) I love to read posts like this! Miracles in progress! I am so happy for you too. Thanks for the inspiration. Posts like this give me hope. I need alot of that now again. Your friend, cdb :)
Good to hear, Mary! Thank you for the reminder to be happy when there isn't a crisis. It reminds me to live one day at a time. At this moment I have no immediate crisis. I want to enjoy it just like you did.
