If you told me...


ten years ago that I could have a life of my own today, I would tell you that you were either nuts or that I had a life of my own.  Oh how much I did not know back then. 


This past weekend, I attended w/ my hubs the MA AA convention w/ Alanon participation.  Hubs and I were able to go our seperate ways , attend the meetings we wanted to, and spend some time together.  It was really a nice time.  During the entire weekend, I didnt think about realized that I had truly let him go to work his program as he so chooses.  I can live my life w/out being in his business all the time. 


I travel all over New England attending meetings, conferences, conventions, & round-ups for both Alanon & AA w/ Alanon participation.  Most of the time I attend alone or w/ program friends and I am comfortable with that.  I enjoy going to these events because I learn so much from hearing others perspectives on old problems. 


I dont have to obsess over what is happening at home while I am away.  I dont have to obsess over what hubs is or is not doing in his life.  I can and do get away to take care of me because I do deserve it.

Aloha Karen from this side of the planet!!


Amazing isn't it that you were at a family group (mixed) function at maybe the very same time I was doing the same thing and getting very similar results?  Geeeez Louise does it work!!
