Whew.... - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

JennyK · 05-02-2005, 08:34 PM

Employment is heaven.

My husband is working and has to account for his time to someone other than me. And that person pays him, which allows him to take care of his family.

I will forever see the past 6 months as the dark side. If we go there again, I am lightening speeding out of it.

He is exhausted and encouraged and exhausted. Judge Judy will surely miss his ass on the couch, but she will recover.

He is tired and sore and wanting to whine, but not doing it.

I am proud of him...it has been a long time since I have even thought that.
