Update-Elephant in the Living Room
Permalink  

Morning All,


A couple of weeks ago I posted about the proverbial elephant in my living room and my concerns if he would join us on our family vacation.  Well I am happy to say that he apparently took a seperate vacation.  While not a perfect vacation - it was a good one.  I had a couple of slips in my stinking thinking but overall, I turned things over the best I could and was able to relax and enjoy my family, something that I haven't been able to do often due to my obsession over my husbands relapse. 


Weather was beautiful all week.  Family and friends popped in all week to visit us.  Ate well and best of all lived well.  The weight of the elephant appears to be gone for today.  Lets just hope he takes a permanant vacation.


Karen
