Merry Christmas, but feeling guilt


Hello friends,

So I'm staying in a motel as I told my husband that until he makes an appt for counseling at Kaiser to start a rehab program, I need to be away for a while.  I know this is finally what I need to do...but I feel sooo guilty to leave him on Christmas Day.

I am sure you are feeling a whole lot more than guilt which often pointed the finger back at me when I felt it.  I was wrong and then I was not when I learned to look at the whole picture and not only my part in it.  You are where you are at for a reason...a good reason and it is the best you can do with what you have...Merry Christmas to you under the circumstances and HP bless.   ((((hugs)))) smile
