FOOL BACK FROM FAIR
Permalink  

fool AH is back from his 15 day drinking binge and looks like some bearded emaciated homeless guy from skid row who is in denial about the whole thing and thought he was going to

work today ready to face his furious brother/boss. Ok am I being judgemental enough LOL? Actually, I just want him to maintain some lucity so I can get some things settled finacially etc 

I admiit that going out on my own is frightening but not as frightenibg to think about living this no life with him

my bro in law is going to take me on an 1 /1/2 drive from here on sunday to see some apartments. Rentals are so high here and i also am sick of here..

my bro in law is very concerned that if i move too far away, he wont be able to get to me quickly if i need help.

anyway, serenity prayer and rest is helping me. Also have the shingles, doctor said fri.

Alyce, congratulations on having the courage to change things. Keep it up, I can understand life being less frightening on your own than with the guy that just came back from a binge.

(((Alyce))) - I too applaud your courage to take care of you! The shingles are no fun at all.....I had them once and hope they never come back. Stress does contribute for sure - what was strange for my experience - I was actually at a less stressful time and they magically appeared - *sigh*.

My hope is they heal fast for you - mine did and I was truly grateful...they gave me an anti-vial medication + a steroid and maybe that helped - maybe it didn't. But, mine were far less severe than others I know who've had them.

Hang in there and keep doing what you are one day at a time. Love seeing your shares as I can see your growth! Keep coming back!!
