Thank you so much, Dee!

Part 5, wow. Keep on keeping on.

Safe travels venuscat! <3

I was going through some of my old posts and I'm afraid that I do sound like a bit of a broken record. Always talk about needing change but I'm still the same scared, anxious person who is afraid of messing up at everything. Got to put forth more effort. I'm going to my therapist on Tuesday after some weeks off so I'll talk to him about it too.

I don't think you ever sound like a broken record....I see you making changes and taking the steps to make your life better. I see you becoming the woman you want to be, and I think you are wonderful.

And thank you. ♥

Dee74

Change is a process Angie - I think you're doing great

There was a shooting at an elementary school very close to us. A teacher and two students who were next to her was shot in her classroom by her estranged husband who then turned the gun on himself, killing himself. The 8 year old died and the 9 year old is recovering and should make a full recovery. My son knows one of the kids in the classroom . It's unbelievable. Not only were innocent people killed or injured but a classroom of 8 and 9 year olds saw the whole thing. I just don't understand.

Oh Angie love, I am so sorry....I was actually at the airport watching this unfold on TV on Monday....I was completely shocked. I don't understand either.

I hope your son and all of those precious children will be OK. ♥

Thank you all so much. The 9 year old was just released from the hospital. So glad to have heard that.

Today is day 159. I'm doing ok. I bought my son his Easter basket and I hope he likes it. Elvis and I are being lazy today so that has been nice.

Oh dear God. I saw this on the news - comprehensively horrific.

SoberLeigh

Good to hear that the 9 year old has been released.

Many, many prayers for him and all of those precious children.

Hugs for you dear Angie.

Angie247

Thank you so much, Leigh. <3

I saw this video and I cried. It's about April the giraffe and her adorable new baby. Not really graphic but it shows the baby being born, just a couple seconds of that and shortly after she was born and trying to stand up. Sweet video.

SoberLeigh

FWow; thanks so much, Angie. What a beautiful time for Mommy and Baby.

Brought a tear or two to my eyes, too.

SoberLeigh

. Sorry double post.

Angie247

I realized that I forgot Elvis's basket so I went out and got that. Felt bad about forgetting that but he is set now. I got some cat toys, treats and cat nip so he has a basket now too. He'll probably like the big basket best. He'll fit in it so he'll probably sit in it, lol.

No real desire to drink for past several days so that's nice.

SoberLeigh

Sooooo very cute, Angie

Angie247

Alex and Elvis enjoyed their baskets then Alex spent some time in the pool with me putting my feet in the water. Perfect 80 degree weather for it too.

I had to be around my son's father for a bit today and some anxiety came up. He saw me fidgeting and my nervous ticks, told me to relax and said that I needed to start smoking pot. I guess it is legal to have a small amount or will be next year in the state of California. To be honest, I did it maybe 3 times many, many years ago and I just did a small amount but I didn't feel anything. Even if it did do something, I don't want to get addicted to it now because I would if I started. I need to be clear headed..

It's day 160 without alcohol.

Dee74

Your ex sounds like a real jerk sometimes Angie.

Congrats on 160 days Angie!

Angie love ~ marijuana is a serious drug. Just as dangerous as alcohol in my opinion. It's the reason I am where I am today, as in it's the reason I am in recovery.

I know you already said that you weren't interested, but I wanted to say this anyway.

So much love honey. ♥
