After a few lousy day's last weekend and beginning of the week dealing with my A's nonsense we have had a great few day's drama free and I am grateful! I have focused on me and the kids and things have smoothed out. I know this doesn't mean that is the end of the drama however I am focused on the good that is happening now and staying positive. I'm feeling more in the good place I was in before the drama than the place I was in while it was going on and I say this with a giant smile on my face! I just wanted to share some positive today! Today is a good day!

So happy for you Holly! I am feeling much better about myself these days too. Not always worrying what AH is doing or not doing. I'm letting him work his recovery program with no interference from me. I'm getting back to work and doing the things I love. I never want to be in that dark depression ever again. I can't let that happen. I have two kids who are counting on me.
I too am happy Holly that you have found some peace and strength to stay in the present. Way to focus on you and your children - keep up the good work and know that you are worth it!!
