Hey Molly,
Was wondering how you were this morning.......are you feeling any better than yesterday.
Tina
good morning misty...I still got sleepers in my eye but yeah I am awake.For some reason my tummy don't want coffee.So far I feel better(fingers crossed)Yesterday at 3pm I took my youngest to get a outfit for her winter concert....My GOSH is she beautiful!!!!She let ME pick the dress and she actually like it! It looks so nice...my hips were never THAT TINY!!!!What is it about our children that can make us pull our heads out of our butts?????mj

Dear dear johnny I have been thinking ALOT of what you say.For so long I needed something to belive in and I think you may be able to help with this GOD situation.I would like to learn more but every book I've ever seen (bible)etc they are so hard to read.I don't understand most of what its trying to say.You made me smile with taking me under your wing..I always always wanted an older brother instead I got a very selfish older sister.Anyways I don't think this board would be the right spot to have you teach me what I want,so is there anyway we can go through email to talk about this.I want to keep this board seperated from what I want to learn,If it is OK with you I would love to here from you outside of the board......mj
Hi Mollyjean:
Just to put another option out there for you, I thought I would recommend a book I found very interesting and enlightening. It's called "Conversations with God - Book 1". There is a whole set of them, but that is the first one. It was very easy to read and a little different than the norm, but I really understood and liked it and believe in a lot of what it said. It is not written like a bible. It is written like a conversation the author has with God.
Very interesting and easy read - I would give it a try.
Have a great day and take care,
Mickey

Dear Micky I will keep that in mind thank you....how are you today?
Hey guys. Just thought I'd say that I have the same problem as Molly. I REALLY want to connect more with God, I just don't know how. I TRY to read the Bible, but, like Molly said, it is so hard to understand! I don't go to church because I don't like "religion", but I truely believe in God and Jesus. I just have a hard time connecting. I think I may get the book Mickey is talking about. Anyways, how is everyone? I am OK. Been up for a while..I get up at 5 every morning....UGH!!! I hope everyone has a great day and keep fighting for sobriety!!! -----Jess
Good morning sugar..wow 5am?I do that in the spring and summer on weekends just to go fishing(That is my TRUE passion)Over the colder months I try to sleep later but by 7am my body just wakes up.How are you today?
I'm good thanks Mollyjean.
My boyfriend and I had a great talk last night and cleared up some misconceptions on my part because I've been so paranoid about him staying clean. Not that I shouldn't be, but it was a great talk and I feel sooo much better and he is still clean and hanging in there. He is 4 weeks, 3 days now and just starting to feel a bit better each day. He's been dealing with a nasty head cold lately too which doesn't help since he isn't used to being sick at all, but such is life. I'm very, very proud of him and so happy that he is starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel with starting to feel a bit of normalcy.
Anyway, glad you are feeling better and have a great day!

I am so glad to hear hes doing better and GREAT for you for talking with him and sticking by him...I hope you enjoy your day too.Its very very cold in NY today so I can't see myself going to far from home today....mj
Hey Molly. I just read your posts from yesterday. I am SO sorry I wasn't on the computer to help! How are you doing today? You sounded JUST like me when I was going c/t. I would look in the mirror at my ragged face and say "You are such a loser!" and scream I can't do this!! My poor children saw my pain and it scared them I feel SOOO terrible about that time. But, it passed and I LIVED! And slowly, I'm feeling better. I've come to realize that I will never feel as "good" as I did when I was high, but I don't need to. I just need to feel like myself, and when I was high, I was a different person. I still have dreams about pills, I still want them, when I wake up, I I have to tell myself, "You will get through this day clean, and don't even think about pills. Things are a little easier knowing I have a baby inside me, and I can focus on that, now. You can do this, because you are a strong, beautiful person! Love, Jess
Sugarbear thank you I am doing better I feel stronger today Everyone on here yesterday were so nice and I'm sure I probaly would of caved if I didn't come here.I'm on a mission today to do all this research on anti depess and addiction.I go to my Dr(the good one not the drug one)Thursday and it is time for me to get serious!How are you today how are you feeling...mj
