A getaway....


((((Everyone)))


After being woken up lastnight by drunk AH and listening to his arrogance and hate words (I sat up but then just went to bed), I woke up this morning and told him goodbye when I left.  I asked him if he remembered what happened lastnight.  He said, "no, was I messing with you or were you messing with me??"!!!  I said calmly, you are sick, I love you, but you need help.  There is a great AA meeting down the street (he knows where the club is) at 6:30 every morning and it is a wonderful spiritual group.  He looked at his watch.  I left.


I have a busy night tonite - picking up a friend for a meeting with both AAs and Alanons, (talk about a good laugh - great meeting).


On my lunch hour I made reservations for a cheap motel in the mountains for me - tomorrownight and Saturday.  I have to escape the insanity!!!  I feel good about it.  I just don't want to see him for a while, deal with all of this for a while.  It's probably cold up there but I will bring a good book, and try to begin to do some artwork (which I have not done for years!!)


Thanks for all your love and wisdom here.  It's going to be a great day and a great weekend!!!  Wish we could all meet there and HANG out!


 


Love, Heidixxxx

Good for you Heidi...........I wish we could all come and meet there too. I've never done anything like that before but think it might be refreshing.

Have a great time and let us know if you enjoyed it.

YFIR...Gail

Sorry for the rage-n-run last night.  That always scares me when I get woke up like that.  It's like the house should be on fire or something, but no, the A is just showing her bad side again.


Enjoy the mountain retreat... I will be there with you in spirit!


Way to take care of you!

Have a wonderful "Piper weekend". You so deserve it. That's the way to be good to yourself. I love the thought of the mountains in the fall. Look out for the "Great Pumpkin" and the Red Baron! Relax and enjoy yourself. Here's to peaceful .

Live strong,

Yeah good for you. I work at a hotel and officially from next week I can get free nights so I am going to do this from when the following week. I cannot wait to get away!  I may just be going down the street but I know this will help.  I am so so so glad for you that you can take care of yourself in this way.  I wish I could before now.


Maresie.
