Im still unemployed but waiting now for unemployment to kick in as i caved and decided to get into that red tape nightmare. I have been having a great time with my new guy for 9 mths. Beeen going places and getting treated well. Things have progressed so that we are thinking about moving in together . I have bee utilizing Alanon but find myself time to time slipping into old behaviors.

Recently ive noticed my insecurity and my habit of hitching myself to guy,s plan and feeling worried that he is not doing his part to make these plans move ahead. Finally, my voice of reason came through last nite when i said to my guy" i dont want to count on u or anyones actions to go ahead with my life" Wham, as though g-d had figurtively slapped me back into better thinking

So going to go to bank now..by self and marketing by self ..yeah me!

Hey Alyce - I've been slapped a few times in recovery by my HP - it was exactly what I needed when I needed it - good on you for listening and taking the action for your recovery! (((Hugs))) to you - the unemployment process was cumbersome 15 years ago - based on how things happen, I expect it's become even more 'fun'....

Sending you positive thoughts, hugs and prayers! Keep coming back - miss you!
