I know I have to step back totally to let go and let God. His email # phone #'s are blocked so I can enjoy some peace and quiet.
What kept coming back to my mind as I tried to think things through was AA/AL-Anon's Step 1 - We are powerless over alcohol....I am, he is and along with that, he is powerless over me and my freedom to make decisions-to stay or leave, to stay with Al-Anon, to find my own place, to make friends here in a new town, to make the choice to free my life from his chaos, to live as peacefully as possible.
I think it's time I freed myself to let him walk his own path[/COLOR].

I appologize for chopping up your post. I wanted to show you your recovery (w/o alcoholic). Your recovery is showing, and it looks good on you!
I know this last encounter will hurt and feel painful. Give yourself time and be gentle with yourself.
Wishing you brighter tomorrows
