Good morning sweet ladies and everyone out there on this wonderful Christmas Eve. As usual, you girls are up and at it early! I am about to be. Have so much to do, but then again, only half of what I would have done last year. And you know what, THAT'S OK. I have found that my new self-imposed limits are just fine with my family and they are enjoying our holiday time together with mor happiness and calmness thanks to my new "much more laid back" self. So, how's that for a great Christmas gift to me and them?
I discovered the joy of phoniness yesterday. I have been so angry and tense all week. Then my daughter came home (Thank you God!) to spend 5 days with us and I didn't want her to see me like that, so I pretended to be light and happy. And lo and behold.....I was! By the end of the evening, in which we celebrated her 23rd birthday, we were all rolling with laughter and having a great time. I found out that if I just let go of all those nasty thoughts in my head for a little while, the good ones will rule and I can enjoy the moment(s). Now, if I
can just keep it up for a few more days.........weeks...........decades......LOL!
I wish you all a happy time during the holiday. I found when you let yourself, you can enjoy things much more. I hope you do, too. Have a very Merry Christmas. Thank you all for being here for the past few weeks. You have done so much and given me more than words can say. Love to you and all of yours..............Take care of yourselves ~ Carol
Dear Tmom Carol.I am so glad you overcame those nasty feelings.I think when we get like that with those feeling we hurt ourselves more than anyone.I hope you and yours have a very special Christmas.I also wanted to thank you for being here on the board.You welcomed me with open arms and I think I've learned alittle from eveyone.In the end I am slowly becomming a better person thanks to you and the rest.Merry Christmas Carol all the best to you & yours...mj
YELLOW Molly ~
Happy Christmas Eve to you too :-)
MJ......thank you and right back at 'cha. You are always so upbeat and chipper........enjoy reading your kind words.
Don't overdo it today......or tomorrow.. Let go and let God.
Merry Christmas!
Carol
Thank you Carol.I try very hard to treat others the way I like to be treated.As far as over doing it....well thanks to you and others on here I seem to have gotten stronger from all the nice words.I promise you my daughters and myself that this will be 1 Christmas I don't try to drug away.Take Care....mj
I was thinking the same thing, that this is the first Christmas
that I won't be popping pills in years. I am happy about it , I just
wonder what it will be like. I keep thinking about all the things I
must have missed in the past when I was high. This year I won't
miss a beat.
