yelling at god

Posted Today at 02:09 PM by BlueMoon (Life happens when you’re sober)

what do you do when you are SO angry with/at your higher power that you can’t even talk/pray to her/him/it any more?

what do you do when you feel so totally abandoned, let down, lied to, kicked in the gut, that you just can’t take it any more?

how do you yell at a supreme being?
how can you possibly win a disagreement with one?

i’m sick to death of bad things happening to me – and

Saving Fish from Drowning

Posted 02-11-2012 at 05:44 PM by BlueMoon (Life happens when you’re sober)

The evil that is in the world almost always comes of ignorance, and the good intentions may do as much harm as malevolence if they lack understanding. – Albert Camus

A pious man explained to his followers: “It is evil to take lives and noble to save them. Each day I pledge to save a hundred lives. I drop my net in the lake and scoop out a hundred fishes. I place the fishes on the bank, where they

Anniversary Pizza Party!

Posted 02-11-2012 at 05:34 PM by BlueMoon (Life happens when you’re sober)

Today was the great B-day / Anniversary Pizza Party!

It was so awesome! Hubby helped get everything ready – cleaning, paper plates, blowing up the medical exam gloves to look like chickens, etc. Son + his 5 daughters came and Son’s GF too – I like her, she’s cool. They were coming from 1/2 hour away and the 13yo – Sara – texted me every other minute to update me on their progress – and also to let me know that she was torturing her dad with loud, country music. (He’s strictly rock

Posted 02-09-2012 at 01:28 PM by BlueMoon (Life happens when you’re sober)

I started drinking at 14.
The 1st time I drank, I nearly died of alcohol poisoning.
How’s that for a clue?
(One of my g-girls is 13 – what a reality check to realize how very YOUNG I really was!)
