Way to stay strong; Sobriety is freedom.......

We are still hanging on, Carol. I think I will keep the gremlins...they are getting cuter. I thought about selling my 14 year old, but he was so well behaved that I thought I had a different kid....
I still have finals to go, and I am soooooo mad at myself because I didn't study at all....procrastination is one of my major defects...
Everyone have a great day....
Gina, how is the family?
Poopie, how are you doing?
CG, say a prayer for my tests....lol.....

Kerry,
Great post. Nothing like seeing someone who can't keep their $#it together to remind us how thankful we are, huh? I'm so glad you had a sober Thanksgiving. There is just nothing better.
Good to read your sweet post.

Kelly, thanks, it was a good reminder. He stayed sober during dinner, but as soon as we got back to the hotel, he got hammered. He caused a scene, blew off firecrackers like a jerk, and then barfed all over my sister's bed.
I talked to him afterwards; the whole family knows my dirty secret. But, he ended the coversation with "well, maybe I shouldn't be around people that get hammered....just have a few beers and stop." I tried to pass the message, and set an example, but it is amazing seeing the denial in this disease. It was a goood reminder for me. He woke up in his car beat up and is facing a dui...he said he didn't drive, but the cops found him in the car with the keys running. He doesn't even remember a thing. And he still thinks about taking a drink???
During dinner, my older sister asked why I can't drink; I am a pillhead. I reminder her of a story of not long ago where margaritas were involved.....then she got it.
It was good for me, though. I am just ssssssssooooooooo greatful that the desire has been removed; that took a really long time. But that promise came true. :0)

Hi Kerry, it's nice to see you back and even better to hear how well you're doing.
It's great seeing someone tackle life and all it's obstacles. I wish you sucess in everything you do. I have a feeling you're going to go far. You are an inspiration to everyone who is stuck in their misery. You're showing people how they can rise above it and make a better life. Good for you!!
Love, Kat
