FarawayFromCars: an Update

Hello Everyone,

An update on my situtation that I'd like to share. My sister has been in a recovery program since September, and so far, so good. She is learning to live a sober life. She can stay in this program for up to two years. I hope it will stick this time. But I'm also working with my therapist and know...that it's not up to me to make sure she does it. All I can do is love her for who she is and accept her for who she is, and I've come a long way with that. We are starting to rebuild our relationship. Baby steps, but steps nonetheless. My mom and I are also rebuilding our relationship. We've come to some understandings regarding my sister and her alcoholism. And I think I'm much better at sticking up for myself and my feelings now, too. Again, baby steps...but things are getting better!
I've made some other decisions about my line of work and am hoping for good news next week. All in all things are looking up!
Thanks for reading.
