She ruined Mother's Day

I'm feeling sad tonight. Alcoholic Sister ruined Mother's Day with her drinking. Nice, eh?

I calmly expressed to her that because she is actively drinking, I cannot have her in my life. I sat through dinner for my mom's sake, but I do not plan to have contact with her unless she decides to get serious about sobriety.

She sent me a barrage of nasty emails tonight (well, at least the first one was). I deleted them without reading and then blocked her email address. I don't need to take her abusive language or behavior. I feel strangely calm about this. Sad, but calm.

I've also started a blog about my experiences as the sober sibling to an alcoholic. It's helping me cope.

Thanks everyone for listening. It is much appreciated.
