I haven't been on here for a long time. I guess it is because most everything is the same as it was the last time I posted.The one exception is that my marriage is improving. I guess we have both been mellowing out as my husband says. He is definitely an alcoholic so he is my qualifier. I know there are people that don't know me or my story. I really want to make this brief because I don't want to get negative right now. All I can say is that it has been a long haul since I walked into my first meeting. I am grateful for all the years I have been in this program & that I am still a work in progress.
Practice the PAUSE...Pause before judging. Pause before assuming. Pause before accusing. Pause whenever you are about to react harshly and you will avoid doing and saying things you will later regret. ~~~~ Lori Deschene
Good to see you Hoot nanny. Also a work in progress these many years, I love your reminders. I've figured out that each decade brings a new challenge in one way or another, and I too am grateful for this program . wp aka mspw
