Well..I survived the tornados last night and was it crazy....

Springtime in the ozarks !!!!

Hopefully the storms of nature will chill for a bit...The storm of my life is in it's tornadic phase....

Just as I finish with my court dates and fines..my husband gets arrested for something that happened n freaking sept..... A fight we had that got physical..

an isolated event...we went to counseling he went to anger mgmt on his own..so I dropped the charges...

State picks them up...I want to scream...Tell me how is this is supposed to help my family ???? I DROPPED the charges for a reason... now in addition to ANOTHER lawyer fee...bond etc...financially this is killing us and he could very much lose his job ..I am not working cause I just got out of my legal troubles and cannot work in pharmacy.....want to drink this away !!!
want to find some pills
and take a load off...

I know that will only add to these mounting problems...

So even though I say that, I know i WILL NOT use to try and get through this.....My HP will help me......he is trying to teach me something.....I just hope that with clear eyes I can see it this time and actually get it !!!!

Peace and Love,
~~Beezy

Hi Smyle,

I am glad your legal troubles are over and I hope that you can find a job in your field that works for you.

The reason the State pursues the charges is because they are trying to protect people and children and families from domestic violence. Of course, all circumstances are different and in your case, maybe it was an isolated event, but in other cases, maybe not. I do hope your husband keeps his job and hope that you get through this difficult time.

You've answered your own question, Beezy. You have my prayers.

Take a deep breath. Life comes up quick sometimes. Keep your faith in your HP, and do the foot work. Most important, don't pick up.

I'll keep you in my prayers.

I wanted to tell you Im sorry you are still having trouble from the past. It will serve to make you stronger and hopefully, you and your husban closer. I too still have an uphill fight every day and sometimes lose sight of the goals. It took me going to inpatient rehab in Jeff City to be able to cope with it a little better, and a strong therapist. It wont cure everything but it sure as heck gave me a lot of good tools for recovery for myself and for my family. I hope things work out for you. I seen those storms too. I live in Gasconade County and had a tornadoe touch down only 3 miles from my home. I hope those storms in your head and your heart slow down to a slow rain that waters your soul so it can grow and shine later on. Come talk to us here at SR. We can relate to you and help any way we can even if its listening.

It has really shown me just how much we are there for each other.

I have not been craving drugs so much but I have been struggling with the beer today.
Spring break always triggers this ...so I will do some spring cleaning...Thanks again
