Hi (((((((roomies))))))
The first update was to let you all know about How I was doing with my hubby being laid off and this is what has happened since then:

I just thought you all would like to know that My hubby and I have decided to start our own bussiness. So far Hp has blessed us with lots of doors opening up and my hubby already keeping busy with his new bussiness and is loving it!!! It was a true blessing from HP for my hubby to be laid off he is know doing what he really enjoys doing and is less stressful!!! The other Job was killing him not to mention hurting the family with all the added pressure of his stress that was put on by the company!! Most of who was laid off in my hubby department has been able to find work or doing what they really wanted to do..... :)

As for me i am doing well with all the new changes and is looking forward to all the challenges with starting our new buissiness!!!

I still keep in mind the solgans One day at a time and Keep simple and easy does it!!!


However I am having a hard time with my A father and A sister and there lies with "were not drinking no more" only to have spent last weekend with them and there drinking again!!!! It was sad but i dealt with it by saying nothing and giving them over to my HP! He is the only one that can help them change and that I am powerless over what they do and that i can not control them I can only Love my Father and sister but I don'thave to accept there lies and the secret!! I grew up with lies and secrets all my life and I hate it!!!! I personally do my best with not lying or keep secrets because when i do it cause chaoes in my life until I make amends for the lying or the secret that I know was hurtful. I just have to put a bandage on my father and sister and know in my heart there sick and leave the rest to my HP.....

I hate this dieases it is killing my family one by one and it started with my mom (4 years ago). It is just encrediable sad!!!!

But you know the closer i am with my HP the closer I am at keeping the focus on me and instread of being sad angry depressed I am more peaceful loving forgiving and have true compasion for my A family that I believe is in great denil thinking they can stop drinking on there own but not knowing that they can't they need help!!!!! But in time Hp with show them Just like he has me I had to hit bottom before i came to realization that I needed help and that my life was out of control My Hp has loads of mercy and compasion on me and I had to have the willingness to turn it over to Hp and have him help me and there no different!!!!

WOW I haven't wrote this much on the board before I hope this will inspire others and i am glad to be able to open up and share my thoughts with others who are hurting lonely and or the oppisite happy peaceful!!!!


Thanks for lisitening and have a great week!!!!! ((((((((((love to you all roomies)))))))

Hello Bubbles,
YES :) Your post did inspire me. I have seen you grow in the program so much and it makes me see how if we work it, it works. I am so sorry to hear about your father and sister though. IT sounds like you are doing the detatching with love so well and I know that is so hard to do. HP has been speaking to me lately too and I think it sort of goes along with stages in our recovery process. Afterall, we have to be the ones to listen to HP first, I am finding. I am so happy about your husband and your's new business. Congratulations! Wishing you all the best in that new journey in your life. Many thoughts and prayers from me to you! cdb ((((((Bubbles)))))) xoxoxoxoxo
